This is a fable about being in the moment and how the smallest encounters in the day are often the most beautiful. I can be guilty of ignoring these tiny beautiful slices of time because I am too busy getting on with the next task. And like the worm in the story I need to remember to stop, look and cherish these moments. This book is a timely reminder to enjoy the wonders of the world around us.

A fantastic book. – Chris Haughton, author of ‘A Bit Lost’ I love love love it, just beautiful. – Millie Marotta, author of ‘Millie Marotta’s Animal Kingdom’ I love it.
