About this ebook
The wood mouse and the rabbit find a rag doll in the woods. Nothing about it is familiar: it doesn’t smell like the fresh air of spring or feel like the rough bark of a tree. As the group of forest animals grows and searches for a clue to where the doll came from, they encounter more mysteries—and discover the one thing their hearts know to be true.
Whether between parent and child, siblings, or friends, this beautifully illustrated bedtime story is about the way we show one other how much we care.
