The Mountain MoOobles are in search of Smidge - a gentle giant at heart, who learns the importance of freedom and friendship when an accident leaves him trapped alone on a hillside. Will the MoOobles find Smidge? And will he finally be reunited with his Mum and Dad...? *Perfect for children aged 3-8 years, this magical tale of friendship and adventure will brighten up any bookshelf.* Philippa finished writing this story at home in London, while recovering from a cancer operation in January 2020. Then the country went into lockdown, so she decided to illustrate it too - with a little help from her four-year-old daughter. ***A percentage of profits from the sale of every book goes to NHS Charities Together*** *Here’s what pupils from primary schools have said about Smidge and the Mountain MoOobles* “Can we read it again please?” “I really like the little MoOobles, especially when they skip and jump.” “I love all the rainbow colours and Smidge’s house.” “This is the best book we’ve ever read!” *And here’s what some of the teachers think* “Such a lovely story.” “Definitely on par with Donaldson and Gravett.” “Fantastic for schools to use in their PSHE syllabus, particularly for Reception and Key Stage 1.” “Absolutely charming in every way.”
