The right book might just change your life ...

Mim and the Anxious Artist follows Mim Cohen as she roams the world in a travelling bookshop with her dad, brother, and a horse called Flossy. Flossy leads them to the place where they're needed most—the place where the perfect book will find its way home.

Now, Mim has arrived in elegant Paris, where she meets Pierre, a talented but anxious artist who cannot bear to give up his paintings, even to sell them. He's miserable and poor, and his customers are cross.

Mim knows they're there to help Pierre—to calm him down, turn him into a successful artist, and make him truly happy.

If only Mim could find him the right book. If only Dad would stop getting muddled and giving everyone the wrong book.

The glistening new adventure from award-winning author Katrina Nannestad and beloved illustrator Cheryl Orsini.
