Description
A New Home for Rabbit
A story about moving house
“How about we all come with you?” said Owl, “in your heart and your pocket!”
Rabbit feels sad to leave the woods and move to a new burrow, but with the help of Owl, and of course, our mascot Rags, she begins to discover that even when things change, she can carry her memories and love with her—wherever she goes.
A New Home for Rabbit is part of the Experiences Collection (purple) and has been thoughtfully written to gently reflect the experience of moving home and big changes, helping young children feel understood, supported, and reassured during times of transition.
Written by Gillian Murgatroyd, a children's psychotherapist specialising in play and creative arts therapy, this story has been designed to support emotional understanding through play, imagination, and connection.
Each book in the Emotions at Play series also includes:
- A simple science experiment linked to the story
- A game for connection to help strengthen relationships between child and caregiver
- A creative art activity
- A hands-on craft idea
- Gentle sensory play suggestions
- Fun facts and jokes woven throughout for lightness and engagement
But the story doesn’t end there…
At the back of every book, you’ll find a QR code that leads to additional support materials created for the adults around the child. These include:
- Information about the specific emotional theme the story explores
- Practical tips and strategies that Gillian would typically share with parents, carers, teachers, and therapists in her own clinical practice
- Guidance to help support emotional understanding at home, in schools, or in therapy settings
The books are illustrated by Sarah-Leigh Wills, an award-winning illustrator who has created hundreds of children’s books, bringing Rabbit’s world to life with warmth, colour, and imagination.
The Emotions at Play series combines therapeutic storytelling, playful connection, and real-world support for families and professionals—helping children make sense of their feelings in a safe, creative, and meaningful way.
