Poppy Makes Pockets

By Jemima Parker

Poppy finds a crafty solution

for carrying her treasures in this uplifting story about creativity, upcycling,
community spirit - and the joy of pockets

Poppy picks up the most amazing things when
she's out exploring, from glossy feathers to rattling seed pods to shiny
buttons. But she's missing something very important: pockets to carry her
findings

After an unsuccessful wardrobe search, Poppy's creativity
is sparked. With some crafty textile upcycling, she makes her own
pocket-covered outfit. It's such a success that she opens a stand in her street
offering pocket-making for all. But what happens when Poppy runs out of fabric,
and people still want pockets? Can Poppy and her neighbourhood friends come
together to find a solution?

Girls' clothing almost never has practical
pockets, which affects how girls play, move, and navigate life. Poppy Makes
Pockets celebrates of the joy of pockets, and highlights that girls need
them too. It also explores themes of upcycling worn-out clothing, inspiring
young readers to think about sustainable and creative solutions to problems.
Full of positivity and joy, this delightful story will entertain little readers
everywhere, especially those who love collecting treasures.
