Summary

Step into the exquisite miniature world of the mice of Brambly Hedge in this beautiful new edition of the classic picture book. 
It was early summer in Brambly Hedge. Outside everything seemed quiet and peaceful, but inside the mill there was chaos. Poppy’s new babies were crying, Dusty’s mill was clattering and clouds of flour dust filled the air. This was no place to bring up a family. But what was to be done? 
The mice of Brambly Hedge came up with a plan in no time at all, and even Wilfred managed to keep it a secret from Poppy, so that she had the most wonderful surprise on the babies’ Naming Day. 
Jill Barklem's Poppy's Babies is a top-rated classic in children's fiction, loved by kids for its beautifully illustrated narrative. The story, though short, is filled with the lively adventures of juvenile mice, making it a bestseller among children's books about animals. 
For fans of Jessica Courtney-Tickle (Sleep, My Baby), Cicely Mary Barker (Flower Fairies of the Summer), Matt Tavares (Dasher Can't Wait for Christmas), Beatrix Potter (Beatrix Potter The Complete Tales), and Nicola Killen (Ollie's Lost Kitten).
