About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is grappling with a long wait, a sense of being forgotten, or the quiet anxiety that comes with transitions. It is an ideal choice for a child who needs reassurance that even when things feel lonely or 'overgrown,' life still holds the potential for renewal and being found again. The story follows three handcrafted dolls, Maisie, Bear, and Little Doll, who are left behind in a garden cottage. As the years pass and the forest slowly hides their home, they wait with a quiet, patient hope. This book beautifully explores themes of patience, the passage of time, and the restorative power of nature. For children ages 4 to 8, it offers a comforting, meditative experience that validates the feeling of being small in a big, changing world, ultimately concluding with a joyful reunion that reinforces the idea that no one is ever truly lost forever.
