Pumpkin wakes one morning to a loud noise. When she and Toots the cat peak throught the window, they see people who are removing the trash. The men and women look dashing in their uniforms, like real heroes. Then Pumpkin starts to wonder about all of the hidden heroes out there ...

‘Look for bits of magic that hide out in plain sight.

They look out for what needs to be done, and DO it – that’s their plan.”

A beautiful story that shows children there are heroes everywhere, you just need to look for them!
