The Otter's Tiny Workshop

In The Otter's Tiny Workshop, Pip the otter runs a small workshop under a willow tree by a sparkling river. There, she repairs broken toys for the animals living along the water. Wearing her teal apron and leather tool belt, Pip takes pride in every repair, and her amber eyes and wagging tail show her love for the work. When Lila the rabbit brings a wooden boat with a cracked hull and torn sail, Pip's usual glue is not enough, and she is unsure what to try next.

Help arrives from Bramble the beaver, who knows wood well and teaches Pip how to clean the crack, add thin wooden splints and a patch, and press the repair tight until it dries. The boat comes back stronger than before, and word of the workshop spreads. Soon a hedgehog brings a wagon with a wobbly wheel and a mouse brings a drum with a torn skin, and Pip applies her new skills to each toy, reusing old parts and saving every scrap. Bramble then adds a further thought: the best repair is one that keeps broken things out of the river, leading Pip and her friends to promise to repair first and care for the riverbank they share.
