Muriel and the Mystery

A little shrew encounters the unexpected in this charming picture book that explores change and the fear of the unknown. For fans of Little Witch Hazel and The Hidden World of Gnomes.

Muriel is having a perfectly ordinary day in the forest she knows by heart, when, while gathering snails in the underbrush, she encounters a mystery!

It’s different from anything she’s seen before, and it certainly doesn’t belong in her well-ordered life. Though she tries to put it out of her mind, that becomes difficult when the mystery won’t leave her alone. . .

Muriel will need to muster her courage to face the unknown and embrace the changes it brings to her forest. And maybe, just maybe, she will make a new friend along the way.
