Mousey Mornings
Multi-Award-Winning Picture Book for ages 3–5
 
Beneath the stairs live two small mice, Melvin and Zara.
 
Melvin is a great chef, but when his whiskers droop from exhaustion Zara realises she should do more to help. Mousey Mornings is a gentle story about friendship, empathy, and learning to notice when someone needs support.
Through simple rhyming and expressive illustrations, young children are introduced to the idea that helping doesn’t always mean fixing — sometimes it means being kind, and present.
 
Readers often comment on how relatable the story feels for young children (and adults alike!) 
 
The calm pace and reassuring tone make this a favourite for bedtime reading, classroom discussion, and quiet shared moments at home.
 
Written by award-winning children’s author Fiona Lowry, Mousey Mornings reflects her ongoing focus on emotional wellbeing, connection, and helping children build understanding of themselves and of others, from an early age.
A thoughtful story that reminds children (and adults) that small acts of care can change the shape of a day.
