Igor and the Mending Mice
In a town where fashion is everything and people only wear brand-new clothes, a family of industrious mice discover a different way forward. With nimble paws and clever ideas, they begin mending old and damaged clothes, stitching new life into once-forgotten favourites. Soon, their human neighbours are delighted to have wardrobes that are both beautiful and long-lasting.
But not everyone is happy. Igor, the mean and miserly owner of the town’s fast-fashion factory, is furious as his business begins to lose money. Determined to put a stop to the meddling mice, he tries to outwit them. Can Igor squash their creativity, or will the mice’s resourceful nature inspire a change of heart (and business)?
Through humour and heart, this story shows that small acts of creativity can make a big difference, while gently encouraging children to think about waste and sustainability.
