Description
Molly is a mole with many friends, including a deer, a butterfly, and an owl. Sometimes Molly feels sad because she doesn't look the same as her friends, and feels very different to them. By helping each of them out with a task, Molly learns that her friends love her for the amazing qualities that are unique just to her. Molly the Mole addresses the difference between the way we perceive ourselves and the way our friends and family perceive us. Molly learns the importance of being kind and patient with others, and that everyone is unique.

Reviews / Votes
A charming and engaging story to help young children be themselves, believe in themselves and be proud. -- Kate Collins-Donnelly, author of the Starving the Gremlin and Banish the Thief series an important story, well written and with wonderfully bright images. There is plenty of scope for discussion, and the notes for parents and teachers at the end will help this along. -- Healthy BooksMore details
