"A moving and evocative story with gentle loving illustrations by Nabila Adani this book is a true delight."

Louise Ellis-Barrett, Armadillo

"Wendy Meddour's story is written with great sensitivity. Presenting what for many immigrant families is a challenging time, she shows how with love, support, kindness and nature's healing power, the process of adjustment to a different life can begin. The richness and beauty of the natural world - real and remembered - is elegantly captured in Nabila Adani's misty illustrations and you can read the changing emotions in her portrayal of the two main characters."

Jill Bennett, Red Reading Hub

"Wendy Meddour's tender story is beautifully realised by Nabila Adani's emotionally astute pictures with bright blasts of colour and dense meaningful tones."

"...the over-riding message is one of great love, empathy and sensitivity to the feelings of others, and a desire through that love to find something that helps."
