A beautiful anthology of 8 stories, written as letters of love, for a special person in your life.
This is a stunning, heartfelt collection of short stories told as letters from a parent to a child, encompassing the life lessons they want them to take out into the world.
In 'Stones' a little bear builds a tower, only to see it come crashing down, but that's okay - it's the chance to start again and dream a new dream. In 'Sparks' they realise that they don't have to be good at everything all at once - they just have to begin. In 'Stars' they discover that hope is always there if they're brave enough to look for it.
Beautifully and thoughtfully illustrated, this is a book of wisdom for someone to carry close to their heart, wherever life's journey might take them.
