The Fabulous Lost And Found And The Little Polish Mouse: A Journey of Adventure and Friendship
![Jese Leos](https://epilogueepic.com/author/sammy-powell.jpg)
Once upon a time, in the heart of a bustling city, there stood a curious little shop called The Fabulous Lost And Found. It was no ordinary shop, for it held a magical secret. Hidden between the shelves stacked with dusty books, shiny trinkets, and forgotten toys, lived a kind-hearted mouse named Mateusz.
Mateusz, a little Polish mouse with bright eyes and a tiny red bow tie, had journeyed from a distant land to find a place where he could make new friends and seek exciting adventures. He stumbled upon The Fabulous Lost And Found one rainy afternoon, and his life would never be the same again.
The Fabulous Lost And Found was a sanctuary for lost things. It brought solace to those who had lost their way and comfort to the forgotten objects that called this magical place home. Here, lost umbrellas, mismatched socks, and abandoned toys found companionship and purpose once more.

The shopkeeper, Mrs. Jenkins, took Mateusz under her wing and introduced him to the wonders of the Lost And Found. She taught him how to mend broken toys, find missing puzzle pieces, and match wayward gloves. Mateusz became an integral part of the shop, assisting Mrs. Jenkins in her mission to bring joy and reunite lost belongings with their owners.
One day, Mateusz stumbled upon an old, worn-out map hidden beneath a stack of forgotten books. It was a map that had once belonged to a legendary explorer, and it hinted at a long-lost treasure hidden deep within the unknown depths of the city.
With his adventurous spirit ignited, Mateusz shared his discovery with Mrs. Jenkins. The two decided to embark on an extraordinary journey together, following the clues on the map to find the hidden treasure.
Their quest took them through bustling marketplaces, winding alleyways, and secret tunnels that lay hidden beneath the city's surface. Mateusz's keen sense of smell and Mrs. Jenkins' innate wisdom led them closer to the treasure with each passing day.
As they delved deeper into their adventure, they encountered peculiar characters along the way. They met a wise old cat who guided them through the labyrinthine streets, a mischievous group of squirrels who tested their wits, and even a grumpy gardener who held a key to their success.
The journey wasn't an easy one. Mateusz and Mrs. Jenkins faced countless obstacles, challenging riddles, and moments of doubt. But their unwavering determination and the bond of friendship they had forged kept them going, pushing them to overcome every hurdle that stood in their way.
Finally, after days of tireless exploration, they reached their destination. The hidden treasure was revealed—a magical amulet that could grant any lost object its deepest desire. It had the power to mend broken hearts and reunite long-lost loved ones.
Mateusz and Mrs. Jenkins knew that the amulet belonged in the Fabulous Lost And Found. It would bring immeasurable joy to the lost things that found solace in the shop's warm embrace. With newfound hope in their hearts, they returned to their beloved haven, carrying the amulet's magic within them.
From that day forward, The Fabulous Lost And Found became even more enchanting. Lost objects found their way back to their owners faster, and broken toys were transformed into cherished playmates once more. Mateusz and Mrs. Jenkins continued their mission, bringing smiles, laughter, and a sense of belonging to all who visited their extraordinary shop.
The tale of The Fabulous Lost And Found And The Little Polish Mouse reminds us of the power of friendship, the resilience of the human spirit, and the magic that lies within even the humblest of creatures. It shows us that with determination, kindness, and a spirit of adventure, we can overcome any obstacle, find treasure in unexpected places, and create a world where lost things become found. Come, join Mateusz and Mrs. Jenkins on their extraordinary journey and let your imagination set sail in this whimsical tale of courage, hope, and the beauty of lost and found.

A little mouse walks into the Lost & Found, but can only speak Polish. How will Mr and Mrs Frog figure out what the mouse is missing…? Aimed at children aged 2-7, the unique ‘Story-powered language learning method’ combines humour, story and emotion to gently and memorably introduce kids to more than forty simple and fun Polish words and phrases. “The kids were so busy laughing they didn’t realise they were learning.” Kyle Buchannan, Dad of two, London. It’s a bilingual children’s book with a difference, that helps lay the foundations of a love of languages.
Reviews:
"With this delightful little mouse, your child will soon be laughing and speaking some Polish without being overwhelmed. I’ll be recommending it to anyone of Polish heritage as it’s such an engaging way to learn.” Anna Kucewicz, PolishAtHeart.com
“I love that I can introduce my kids to a new language without it feeling like homework.” Zoe Reynolds, UK
“Let’s read it again.” Noah, aged 4.5
"Utterly charming story, making use of children’s natural approach to learning language” Madalena Xanthopoulou, Founder, The Alma Collective. Expert on raising multilingual children.
"A wonderful book to introduce a new language into the classroom. Lots to talk about and really captIvating illustratIons." Rohan Plunkett, Deputy Head, Akiva Primary School.
How does the Story Powered Language Learning Method work?
Unlike a Polish picture dictionary or traditional bilingual Polish English children’s books, the Fabulous Lost and Found uses the the ‘Story-powered Language Learning Method’ taps into a child’s natural abilities. There are three steps:
- We create an emotionally engaging and funny story for children and adults to enjoy together, just like any of the other Polish books for children. Studies show that social interaction, like enjoying a book together, is critical in language learning.
- Through the story, we introduce a relatable character who speaks only in the new language. This helps build empathy and a positive attitude towards people who speak different languages. These are both important aspects in laying the foundations for lasting language acquisition in a child’s life.
- As the story in this Polish picture book progresses, the child naturally works with the characters to discover the meanings of a wide range of fun new words and phrases. Strategic use of humour ensures that this subconscious learning is rewarded with laughter; the child feels good and the first seeds of a lifelong love of language are sown.
Message from the Author
Mark Pallis iThere is a special magic about learning words another language and using them: I truly think it warms the heart. I've learnt jokes or songs in ten languages so far and it's brought me so much joy. This Polish book for children is first and foremost a really enjoyable story, but it's also my way of helping little learners engage with a new language, empathise with strangers and ultimately build a love of languages. And it happens without them realising. Any parent who has ever tried to smuggle vegetables into pasta sauce will know that you can get a lot of good stuff into things without kids noticing. This book is the same! I want you all to have fun together and enjoy the story. The learning is a bonus; the icing on the cake or extra veg in the sauce! The idea that after a few reads, kids will be able to go up to a native speaker and tell them in their own language: 'I've lost my hat' fills me with joy. Imagine how proud the child, and you, will feel!
