2019 short-listed for older readers Australian Children's Book of the Year. This book reinforced why I often enjoy Children's books more than adult's. It tackles difficult themes delicately, demonstrating the author's respect for youth readers ability to lean in to difficult content. Loved it as I always love Steven Herrick's writing.
