Step into the miniature world of the hedgerow in this beautiful new edition of this classic picture book, following a summer in the lives of the mice of Brambly Hedge.

It was such a hot summer. They sky was deep blue and the sun never faltered. All along Brambly Hedge, the mice did their best to keep cool. Poppy Eyebright sought refuge in the mossy shadows of the mill wheel; Dusty Dogwood took to walking by the banks of the cooling stream. Dusty and Poppy spent more and more time together, so no one was at all surprised when they announced their engagement. They decided on a very unusual setting for the wedding ceremony, but even they didn't realise just how unusual it was prove to be!

The classic tale of mice living a country lifestyle, experiencing the seasons, and navigating life's concepts is a top pick in children's fiction. The juvenile themes and short, engaging narrative make it a must-read for kids.

For fans of Jessica Courtney-Tickle (Sleep, My Baby), Cicely Mary Barker (Flower Fairies of the Summer), Matt Tavares (Dasher Can't Wait for Christmas), Beatrix Potter (Beatrix Potter The Complete Tales), and Patricia Toht (All Aboard the London Bus).
