“A beautiful story and superbly illustrated . Easy to read to very young children and the illustrations capture their attention until they are able to read themselves. It makes a fabulous present. I would highly recommend this book.”

“I’ve been following the author’s blog for a while, and when she mentioned her new book, I couldn’t wait to dive in. Having loved the first book, “Mim the Mouse & The Christmas Gift,” I was thrilled to explore more of the miniature world she’d crafted. Let me tell you, this second book lived up to the hype!

Morris the Mouse, the newest character in the series, was a pleasant surprise, seamlessly fitting into the existing charm. The way McIntosh describes Mim’s wonderful, miniature world and brings it to life with beautiful illustrations is just magical.

The story itself, with Mim’s quest for blackberries and teaming up with Morris, had me hooked from start to finish. Navigating through the woods, facing a tempestuous storm and escaping the talons of an owl—talk about a thrilling adventure that kept me on the edge of my seat!

What I really loved were the themes of friendship and the messages about loyalty and helping others. It’s not just a great read for kids; as an adult, I found myself totally engrossed. McIntosh’s storytelling skills shine, making this second book even more captivating than the first. If you appreciate the magic of miniature worlds and heartwarming tales of friendship, this one’s a must-read!”
