Mimi and Coco: Seeing the Forest Through Each Other's Eyes is a tender and magical story about empathy, independence, and the unbreakable bond between a curious young squirrel and her wise, blind grandmother.
As they explore their woodland home, Coco learns that sight isn't the only way to "see." Guided by Mimi's gentle lessons, Coco discovers how to listen with her heart, trust her instincts, and understand the forest in a whole new way. Together, they prove that love and understanding can light any path-even in the darkest parts of the woods.
With lyrical storytelling and heartwarming illustrations, Mimi and Coco encourages children to celebrate differences, show compassion, and embrace every kind of ability.
