Sleeping Dormouse
A dormouse curled into a ball in a nest of moss with its tail over its nose and acorns stored beside it. It sleeps for seven months, which is the sort of fact that lands with a five-year-old. A hibernating dormouse is cold to the touch and barely breathing, and knowing that changes how the page feels while you colour it.
Printing tips
Set your printer to “fit to page” and turn off headers and footers. Ordinary 80 gsm paper is fine for pencils; use 120 gsm or heavier if you colour with markers so the ink does not bleed through.
