A quiet corner of his own

Silver, the youngest mouse in a busy family, wants a place where he can simply do nothing. His search takes him from his crowded burrow to the homes of forest friends, where each space brings its own obstacles to finding quiet. The picture-book premise turns a familiar household tension—being surrounded by activity while needing time alone—into a small animal’s search for a private refuge. It also opens space to talk with young children about personal boundaries, rest, and having room to think or daydream.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • For children ages 4–8 who enjoy animal stories about mice and forest creatures.
  • For families looking for a picture book that can prompt conversation about quiet time and personal space.
  • For young readers who recognize the challenge of finding a moment alone in a busy household.

Book overview


An adorable picture book for young readers about the importance of finding a quiet spot to ourselves where we can think, dream, and just be. For fans of Marianne Dubec.

Silver is the youngest mouse in a big mouse family. He'd love to have a quiet spot all to himself to do what he likes best: absolutely nothing! But it is almost impossible in his burrow. His noisy siblings are playing ball, dancing, and listening to music. His parents are busy cooking, building gadgets, and reading books.

What should Silver do? He tries to find refuge in the burrows belonging to his forest friends, but finding a place all to himself is harder than he thought. There isn't a single spot in the burrow that's quiet enough for him to do nothing at all...

Join Silver along his journey to find a safe hideaway--just for him! Filled with stunning illustrations, A Place Just For Me is a charming reminder of honoring our own spaces and finding a quiet spot to think in our busy world.
