From the Publisher:

Celebrate the 40th anniversary of the miniature world of the mice of Brambly Hedge!
It was such a hot summer. The sky was deep blue and the sun never faltered. All along Brambly Hedge, the mice did their best to keep cool. Poppy Eyebright sought refuge in the mossy shadows of the mill wheel; Dusty Dogwood took to walking by the banks of the cooling stream. Dusty and Poppy spent more and more time together, so no one was at all surprised when they announced their engagement. They decided on a very unusual setting for the wedding ceremony, but even they didn’t realise just how unusual it was prove to be!

Leah’s Thoughts:

This book is a gentle invitation to slow down and savor the beauty of community, tradition, and the changing seasons. Reading it feels like stepping into a miniature world where every detail is crafted with love and care.
