Seeing Sky-Blue Pink
Plenty of things make Maddie nervous: high places, not always knowing what to say, and especially her new home in the countryside with Sam, her mum’s new husband.
To her surprise, Sam turns out to understand all those things and more – like how to tell the weather from a cat, what kind of treasure you can find at the dump, and where to find a colour called sky-blue pink. Through her growing bond with Sam, Maddie finds the courage to face many of her fears and the wisdom to see things she never believed could be real.
A heart-warming tale about finding love and happiness in the unlikeliest of places.
