A museum built for sharing

Mabel, a wombat with a fondness for tiny treasures, turns her collections into an invitation to connect after a move leaves her without a friend nearby. Seashells tied to a first beach trip, her grandmother’s marbles, and a rabbit-shaped button box give the museum its personal character. The central question—whether anyone will come to appreciate these objects with her—links collecting to the beginnings of friendship. The picture-book premise also makes room for noticing how ordinary keepsakes can carry memories and become points of connection.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 interested in imaginative picture-book stories about friendship.
  • Young readers who enjoy stories centered on collecting small objects and the memories attached to them.

Book overview

The small things that spark a friendship are celebrated in this jewel of a picture book.

Mabel is a wombat who loves collecting tiny treasures. There's the seashells that remind her of her first trip to the beach, her grandmother's antique marble collection, and the rabbit-shaped box that holds all her buttons. But after a recent move, the one thing she doesn't have is a friend to share her treasures with, so she decides to open her very own "Museum of Wonders!" But will anyone show up who will appreciate her collections like she does?

Full of sweet and subtle humor and beautiful art that feels timeless, this picture book perfectly captures the joy found in new friendship and the little things that connect us.
