Little racoon has just moved house and feels so far away from his old home and friends. But soon he realises that change can be exciting as well as daunting and the unfamiliar can in no time become very familiar indeed.
This is another hit from prize-winning Altes. She gets to the heart of a child's concerns and offer comfort and reassurance through an endearing set of naively styled characters and a palette of soft autumnal colours.
