About This Book
Reach for this book when your family is navigating the overwhelming transition of a new baby or a move to a more cramped living situation. It is the perfect choice for a child who feels the shift in attention or for a parent needing to model how a community comes together to support a growing family. The story follows Poppy Eyebright, a new mother mouse struggling to manage triplets in a tiny, crowded space until the Brambly Hedge community secretly prepares a spacious new home for her. With its focus on empathy, kindness, and collective effort, this gentle tale is ideal for children aged 4 to 8. It beautifully illustrates that while new beginnings can be stressful, we are never truly alone when we have friends and neighbors. Parents will appreciate the exquisite illustrations and the way it validates the exhaustion of new parenthood while ending on a high note of gratitude and celebration.
