By Tanya Gervasi
Illustrated by Michela Chiarelli
Lucy the mouse wakes up every day surrounded by trash — but no one else seems to notice. When her mother explains that trash follows those who speak badly of others, Lucy begins to understand how words can weigh us down.
This simple yet profound children’s story explores the unseen effects of gossip: not only on those we speak about, but on ourselves. It’s a gentle parable about mindfulness in speech, showing that our words create the world we live in.
The illustrations by Michela Chiarelli — created in charcoal for a timeless, classic feel — recall the charm of once-upon-a-time children’s books, giving the tale both warmth and gravity.
