A clever rhyming story with beautiful illustrations telling the tale of mole who is told to dream big and soon realising that things don’t always work out as intended。 With a little perseverance he soon sees that his talents are bigger than he first thought， which results in smiles all round。I read with my 4 year old and we enjoyed discussing dreaming big and preserving even when things do always go quite to plan。 Highly recommend this lovely story。

An absolutely gorgeous book。 I loved the rhyming text and the delightful illustrations。 Mole sees the other animals and wants to be like them。 The wise owl， however， encourages him to be himself。 Mole realises that his talent is digging but wherever he digs， he seems to irritate one of the other animals， until a stroke of bad luck actually brings about unintentional fortunate outcomes。A lovely book which has positive messages about being yourself and using your own talents。 A great one for prima An absolutely gorgeous book。 I loved the rhyming text and the delightful illustrations。 Mole sees the other animals and wants to be like them。 The wise owl， however， encourages him to be himself。 Mole realises that his talent is digging but wherever he digs， he seems to irritate one of the other animals， until a stroke of bad luck actually brings about unintentional fortunate outcomes。A lovely book which has positive messages about being yourself and using your own talents。 A great one for primary school assemblies。I received a free copy of this book via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

Cute story about finding your talent， friends， and connecting with others。Mole sees the birds flying one day and wishes he could do that too。 But a wise owl reminds him "just be who you are。。 THAT'S the key！"。 Realising his talent is digging， Mole hurriedly gets starting on making the biggest hole EVER！ But that seems to upset lots of other animals and gets in the way of their own talents and activities。Will Mole be able to put things right and use his talent for good？Percival here composes a ve Cute story about finding your talent， friends， and connecting with others。Mole sees the birds flying one day and wishes he could do that too。 But a wise owl reminds him "just be who you are。。 THAT'S the key！"。 Realising his talent is digging， Mole hurriedly gets starting on making the biggest hole EVER！ But that seems to upset lots of other animals and gets in the way of their own talents and activities。Will Mole be able to put things right and use his talent for good？Percival here composes a very sweet rhyming story that was a pleasure to read loud。 The moral of the story is adorable too， very obvious for even small children that a Mole will not be able to fly， but it's very satisfying in the way that the earlier events are knitted together at the end and friends are also made。 Awww。I wouldn't have recognised this as one of Percival's as he's not illustrated this himself as he usually does。 I don't know why， as he's a very talented artist from the several picture books we've seen。 However， Christine Pym has created a very cute little world for Mole and his friends， with lemon sunrises， big-eyed animals ， adorably shaped underground burrows！A great reminder to children about finding their own special talents， and about the importance of friends and helping each other with one's own natural skills。For ages 2-5。With thanks to Netgalley for providing an advance reading copy。 。。。more
