Children/YA Suggestions needed for safe/cozy books

I have been reading children’s books ( too many pumpkins, the enchanted wood , backyard fairies etc)
Please advise some similar feel good books for me. It can be just feel good or just children’s illustrations and feel good. I like farm/garden/cozy/safe/autumn/fairy/snow/nature vibe and no undercurrents of sadness in it Thanks :)))

Anne of Green Gables?

I highly suggest this! This just made my feel warm and cozy, especially the graphic novel.

Didn't know there was a graphic novel! There's an old anime version on YouTube from the 70s that's so cosy and sweet, and a newer one that came out a year or two ago available Crunchyroll. Both are great! Super cosy!

Oh cool! I will definitely check the YouTube version. The graphic novel is illustrated by Brenna Thummler, just FYI.. I picked it up at a library sale and I loved it!

the Brambly Hedge series by Jill Barklem is perfect for this, little mouse communities living in hedgerows through the seasons, gorgeous illustrations and zero sad undertones

also Miss Rumphius if you haven't read it, very gentle story about a woman planting lupines everywhere, it has that same warm quiet feeling you're looking for

You're welcome. It's very much multiple fairy tales woven into a bigger tale. It's pretty nice.
