Small choices.
A kinder, greener world.

Picture books where your child decides what happens next. Tara the Tailorbird and the friends of Dewberry Hollow show, with plenty of giggles, why kind choices help nature.

The friends of Dewberry Hollow waving by a sparkling brook: Tara the tailorbird, Gilli the squirrel, Pip, Spindly the spider, Bobbin, Ripple the otter, Nibbles the moth, Grandma Loom and Gloop.

Why we're different

A new kind of picture book

Most green books for children tell them what to do. Ours let them choose, and discover why for themselves.

Your child decides

Every book has "What would you choose?" pages. Children think, laugh at Gloop's mistakes, and choose again.

Real nature, not make-believe

Every friend is based on how a real animal lives: the tailorbird really sews, the otter really needs clean water.

Stories, never lectures

Mending, sharing and asking "where does it come from?" are learned through adventures, not rules.

Written by someone who knows how things are made

A lifetime in fashion, textiles and education, so children learn where their clothes and things really come from.

Read, make and collect

Two art styles, screen or print, hands-on crafts, and a map of Dewberry Hollow that grows with every book.

Nature's circle: a leaf grows, falls, is broken down by earthworms and fungi into rich soil, a seed sprouts, and a new tree grows, which grows new leaves.A leaf growson a treeIt fallsin autumn windEarthworms & fungibreak it downRich soilfull of foodA seed sproutsand drinks it upA new treegrows tallNothingis wasted

How nature recycles

In nature, nothing is wasted

A fallen leaf feeds the earthworms, the earthworms feed the soil, and the soil feeds a new seed. Our stories show children how they can be part of that circle.

What families say

Something new is growing in Dewberry Hollow

Little Green Choices has only just begun, and our first families are reading Book 1 now. We won't fill this space with made-up praise: their real words will appear here, with their permission.

Would you like to be one of our first reviewers?

Read Book 1 with your child and tell us what they chose, what made them laugh and what you'd change. Write to hello@littlegreenchoices.com.
