Saffi has walked past the healer's tent all her life. She has never once been inside.

And inside, it is the most interesting place she has ever been: a doorway of a hundred wooden beads that sounds exactly like rain, a wall of little clay jars that all smell different, herbs hanging upside down like a garden growing the wrong way.

Then Balm, the old hare who looks after everyone in the village, turns round to see how much she has grown. And his paws are coming, and Saffi does not know where they will land, or when, or how long they will stay.

This is not a story about a child who learns the doctor is nice. It is a story about a child who finds out she is allowed to ask for what she needs, and says it out loud.

A gentle picture book about check-ups, being touched, and asking to be told first, for every child who feels the world a little more than most. The eighth Saffi the Fennec story.
