Quimble Wood

Quimble Wood is the magical story of four little people's survival in the wilderness. When their box falls out of a car in the middle of a forest, the Quimbles are suddenly faced with the oldest of dilemmas: how to fend for themselves; how to get food and shelter. On their lonely trek through the woods, each discovers his or her special talents and they learn to work and plan together and even to cry on occasion without being ashamed, and to keep going when they would rather give up. Young readers will share wholeheartedly in the catastrophes, triumphs and joys as well as the courage of the Quimbles.
