What is My New Home about?

A little raccoon is moving to a new home, and everything feels strange. The rooms, the sounds and the neighbours are all unfamiliar, leaving him lonely and unsure. But as he explores his new surroundings, he discovers that moving can be the beginning of an exciting adventure. With courage and curiosity, he meets new friends and learns that kindness can make any place feel welcoming. A gentle story about change, making friends and finding a home wherever you are.
