Welcome to the Hollow: Ten Stories of Friendship, Kindness, And Finding Your Place
About this ebook
In the first book of this heartwarming series, five very different children—a baker’s daughter, a shy farm boy, a curious bookworm, a careful builder, and a dreamy weaver—come together by accident and discover something wonderful. Through a wonky cake, a lost lamb, a secret library note, a wobbly bridge, a tangled welcome mat, a grumpy newcomer, an ancient story, a village treasure hunt, a night of star-gazing, and a friendship picnic, they learn that the greatest adventures don’t need magic or superpowers. They need only each other.
Guided by the wise and gentle Granny Willow beneath the Great Willow tree, Lily, Ben, Ava, Noah, and Mia become the Hollow Friends—a team who know that asking for help isn’t weakness, sharing a worry makes it lighter, and a welcome is never a moment but a season.
Perfect for fans of classic village tales like Brambly Hedge, The Wind in the Willows, and The Milly-Molly-Mandy Stories, this collection of ten interconnected short stories is ideal for bedtime reading, early independent readers, and family story time. Overflowing with warmth, gentle humour, and timeless values, Welcome to the Hollow is an invitation to a world where every child belongs.
Join the Hollow Friends under the willow. Your place is waiting.
