Gran’s death leaves Mum inert with grief, while Poppy spends time away from home and later wants to show Mum what she has discovered.
After following Pepper into a forest, Poppy learns from Rob to be still, recognise tracks and hear birds, and begins noticing nature in town as well.
Death and grief are central: Gran has died, Mum is described as inert with grief, and Poppy is affected by the situation.
This is a grounded book brief while Suitabook strengthens the analysis: the current material supports only a cautious reading; another book-specific source is still needed.
