An illustration from Pip and the Moth That Would Not Move

How it begins

“Pip lies curled on a wide rolled map. The white-tipped tail is tucked around both paws. Amber light from the thick window stretches slowly across the floor, all the way to Pip's nose.”

  • •A dusty, sunlit mapmaker's attic where a tiny lacewing presses itself flatter into the shadows the moment it's noticed
  • •Pip guiding a magnifying glass's warm circle of light beside — never onto — a lacewing too shy to be chased
  • •A small green shadow trembling into the light at last, as Pip settles down among the rolled old maps
