Bookroo's summary

The animals of the Hill buzz with anticipation as new residents move into the long-abandoned Big House. With whispers of change and curiosity in the air, they eagerly await the unveiling of their new neighbors. But who are these mysterious Folks, and what surprises do they bring? As the garden springs back to life, the animals must navigate unexpected twists in their lively world. Discover the enchanting blend of humor and whimsy as each creature reveals its unique personality in this delightful tale of community and change.

From the publisher

It has been a while since Folks lived in the Big House, and an even longer time has passed since there has been a garden at the House. All the animals of the Hill are very excited about the new Folks moving in, and they wonder how things are going to change. It’s only a matter of time before the animals of the Hill find out just who is moving in, and they may be a little bit surprised when they do.
