About This Book

Reach for this book when your child starts asking big, unanswerable questions about where they fit in the world or expresses a desire for more independence. It is an ideal choice for the child who feels small and is trying to grasp the scale of their environment. Through the eyes of Little Mole, this story explores how our perspective is shaped by our unique experiences. While the mole travels far and encounters various animals, the core message is deeply reassuring: the world is exactly as big or as small as you choose to see it. It is a gentle, visually stunning tool for discussing subjectivity and the value of one's own journey. Parents will appreciate the balance of adventurous spirit and the comforting safety of returning home.
