Moffles are tiny, fluffy creatures, who carry the colours of their emotions in their fur, for all the world to read like a storybook. Tippy Moffle is very young but already she has become so scared and hurt that she has learned to hide away all her feelings deep inside. She hides her feelings so deeply, that her fur has become dull and grey.

The delightful Moffles are sure to enchant children of all ages.’ Kim S Golding (CBE), Clinical Psychologist and author of Using Stories to Build Bridges with Traumatized Children
