There couldn’t be a greater difference between Titmouse and Mole. Titmouse wants to live his life, whistling and singing. Mole likes the earth, is careful, and sometimes sad. Still they enjoy seeing each other, talk and find comfort in each other’s company. Does Mole see everything too bleak? Does Titmouse want too much? It never clashes between them though, they always make sure not to. Because that's what friends are for.

A delightful read!

Marije Tolman made her debut in 2002 as an illustrator for children’s and picture books. She won, among others, the Gouden Penseel award for The Treehouse (De boomhut), a book she made together with her father Ronald Tolman.
