The Hedgerow Series

The Hedgerow Series celebrates quiet courage, creative spirit, and the journey of becoming. Through gentle storytelling and poetic language, these books follow Evie the mouse and her woodland companions as they navigate friendship, purpose, and the pull to follow one’s own path.

Set in a world of hedgerows, wildflowers, cozy burrows, and handwritten dreams, these books offer more than charming animal tales. They offer young readers stories of self-discovery, imagination, and emotional growth. The characters face choices that mirror the reader’s own: when to speak up, when to try something new, and how to trust the small voice inside.

Book One

In The Poetry Mouse, Evie dares to dream beyond expectations. Though content in her daily routines, she feels a pull to share her poems with the world. What begins as a secret creative spark becomes a brave act of expression. Young readers watch as she steps beyond comfort and into authenticity.

Book Two

In The Literary Hedgehog, the journey continues. Through new friendships and gentle challenges, Evie learns that storytelling is not just about words—it’s about connection, courage, and community.

Reading Age

This series blends storybook narrative with lyrical rhythm, offering a beautiful balance of visual delight and emotional depth. These books are ideal for children ages 5–10 and can be read aloud or independently. They open doors to discussion about creativity, identity, kindness, and the beauty of small, brave acts.

Perfect for bedtime stories, classroom libraries, or gifts for thoughtful young readers, this series is for every child who has ever wondered if their voice matters, and every grown-up who wants to remind them that it does.
