Mouse’s walk through the wood provides a month-by-month frame for observing the year’s seasonal changes. Beginning in wintry January with a visit to Squirrel, the journey continues from friend to friend through December. Die-cut flaps add interactive elements, while a nature calendar highlights plants, birds, and animals for children to look for outdoors. The book brings together a simple woodland journey and opportunities to notice the natural world across the seasons.

Book overview

Written with a gentle rhyme that reflects the slow pace of Mouse's rambling journey, and illustrated in Alice Melvin's inimitable style, Mouse's Wood is a heartwarming celebration of slow living in nature. This beautifully designed book also features special die-cut flaps and includes a spread featuring a nature calendar of plants, birds, and animals for children to search for in the wild.

Mouse first ventures out in wintry January to visit his friend Squirrel. Mouse moves on to wake up Hedgehog for the arrival of spring, and as he continues along the path in the wood, Mouse's journey from friend to friend maps out the changes in seasons from January through to December.
