The Great Forest Shenanigans
(Whispering Woods - Book One)
A laugh-out-loud forest mystery with a heart full of friendship, imagination, and understanding.
Something curious is happening in Whispering Woods...
Acorns are vanishing. Carrots are mysteriously swapped for sticks. And someone tied Owl Oliver's tail feathers in a pink bow! Hazel the Hedgehog is determined to get to the bottom of it-with the help of her scribbled notes, her muddy sidekick Baby Fox Finn, and a crew of very concerned forest friends.
Their plan to trap the troublemakers is a little silly (and includes some very dramatic acting), but when everything goes comically wrong, they discover something unexpected: three little mice who aren't mean or mischievous-just lonely, and hoping to join in the fun.
The Great Forest Shenanigans is a gentle, humorous tale about what happens when we take the time to understand one another. Set in a vibrant woodland full of personality, it celebrates friendship, forgiveness, and the kind of fun that welcomes everyone.
This story began as a bedtime tale shared between a father and his son, and many years later, was brought back to life by the joyful play of grandchildren among the trees. At its heart is a reminder: even the wildest woods become more magical when everyone feels like they belong.
Because the best kind of fun is the kind that brings everyone together. Kindness opens the door-but it's understanding that makes room for everyone to feel at home.
Real friendship starts when we slow down, listen, and see the world through someone else's eyes.
