This series reminds us of Thumblelina with its tiny characters and themes of magic, inclusivity and belonging. The black-and-white illustrations throughout also make it accessible to readers aged 6+ taking their first timid steps towards independent reading.
Friendship, courage and discovery take the lead with this lovely series about a small creature called Tiny, who grows up in a school garden and craves the acceptance of her animal neighbours. With book 1, we see Tiny finding acceptance in the community she leaves in and further on in the series she works to make sure all creatures, big and small, are loved and welcomed in the garden too.
We recommend this heartwarming cosy read to fans of Hotel Flamingo and The Naughtiest Unicorn Series.
