Join Dandy the dormouse on his adventures high up in the trees in this delightful, rhyming story by bestselling poet Pam Ayres, author of The Last Hedgehog and I Am Oliver the Otter.
I am a dormouse, and Dandy is my name.
There are many different mice, we’re not all the same...
Did you know dormice are born grey and get their beautiful golden-brown fur as they get older? Or that they can climb trees like acrobats because of their sticky feet?
Written in rhyme and beautifully illustrated by the award-winning Nicola O'Byrne, Pam Ayres's charming tale I Am Dandy the Dormouse is a light-hearted look at the life of this tiny tree-dweller. Written with the help and advice of The Woodland Trust and bursting with natural facts – like how dormice leave a unique, neat mark on every hazelnut they eat – with an extra information spread at the end. The perfect read for curious young nature-lovers.
