Meet Poppy – if you can find her!
Poppy loves bugs, and can usually be found carrying on conversations with ladybirds or sitting outside among the brightly coloured wildflowers … but good luck spotting her indoors and around people! She’s a master of camouflage, always finding a way to blend into her surroundings.
But when a very special bug lands on her grandma’s birthday cake, Poppy can’t resist popping out to see it. Soon the rest of the guests notice the beautiful dragonfly, and Poppy too. Maybe it's OK to stand out sometimes, just like the vibrant wildflowers and shimmering insects Poppy loves.
This poetic and evocative story celebrates the shy and introverted kids among us, as well as the other small creatures to be found if we look closely enough.
