A moving tale of friendship and understanding, beautifully illustrated and deftly written by the inimitable Jane Chapman.   Mole loves the hustle and bustle, laughter and excitement of being with her friends. But sometimes she needs a little space for herself. To stop and breathe. To think and rest.   Can she find a quiet place all of her own? Maybe with a little help from her friends.   Sometimes everyone needs some space to be themselves. To refresh and reset. This warm and welcoming tale sensitively explores the needs of introverted children. Just like The Invisible Boy by Trudy Ludwig and Patrice Barton, Be Kind by Pat Zietlow Miller and Jen Hill, and Kindness is my Superpower by Alicia Ortego, Mole’s Quiet Place encourages empathy and teaches children to consider the needs of others.
