The mice of BRAMBLY HEDGE made their first appearance in 1980 when the four seasonal stories were published. Ever since, readers have loved exploring the miniature world of the hedgerow and meeting the families that live there. The mice have many adventures, but they always have time for fun and relaxation too. Whatever the season, and whether they are by the sea, in the High Hills, or simply at home by the fire, there is always someone ready to lend a helping hand.

Lovingly written, and illustrated with exquisite detail, by author/ illustrator, Jill Barklem. Children are enchanted!

In POPPY'S BABIES of BRAMBLY HEDGE, all the mice of Brambly Hedge come together to celebrate the newest little mice, born to newlyweds Dusty and Poppy. Dusty realizes that their little house is far too small for his growing family, but what can be done? Poppy is very surprised to find out what happens when all her friends and neighbours of Brambly Hedge get together to help!

Jill Barklem was drawn to the natural world from childhood. While training as an illustrator at St Martin’s School of Art, her long journeys to college gave her time to escape into the imaginary world of a colony of mice, later to be developed as the enchanting miniature world of Brambly Hedge.
