A heartwarming story about the power of thinking differently from the creators of award-winning The Littlest Yak.

Nora is not like the other beavers. She thinks new thoughts. She asks lots of questions. She invents inventions and gives things a try. She’s different and – as her grandad tells her – that’s okay!

So, when the rain pours and the river rises at the beaver lodge, it’s Nora’s know-how that could save the day – if only she could get all the other beavers to believe her!

This dramatic and satisfying story is full of warmth and heart as Nora comes to see that her thinkings are different … but good!

Perfect for encouraging positive conversations about thinking differently and for building empathy and understanding.
A gorgeous rhyming text that's a delight to read aloud.
Adorable illustrations, packed with fun details to spot and pore over.
