Join a father and child on a gentle day of wandering, wondering, and quiet discovery.

As a father mouse and his child meander through the world together, they notice life moving all around them: a bright blue bug scurrying down the path, hornets drifting among the daisies, even a stick dropped from a bridge and carried away by the river below. The child begins to wonder — are they all going home? Did Dad’s lost scarf go home too? Does everyone eventually find their way home?

With soft, rounded illustrations reminiscent of tiny felt figurines and warm, glowing scenes, Simon Howe creates a tender story about curiosity, connection, loss, and the quiet questions children ask as they make sense of the world around them.
