Summary

Rafi and her next-door neighbour Leo LOVE stories. Leo even built a little library so they could share books. But when Leo moves away, Rafi’s street feels empty. Who will she share stories with now? And then she has an idea…

A glorious celebration of community and the power of books to bring us together.

About The Author

Amy Adeney

After working in public relations for five years, and for ten years as a primary teacher, Amy turned her attention to actively pursuing her goal of writing for children. She reviews children’s books for My Child Magazine, and hosts Storytime at her local bookshop, The Leaf. Amy is the author of the six-book junior fiction series Tilda Teaches, and the picture book Turning Cartwheels. When she’s not writing, teaching or reading, Amy can be found attempting (semi-successfully) to train her bichoodle Fred, trying (unsuccessfully) to find a recipe that both her children will like, and catching up on the latest goings-on in Summer Bay.

Erin is a freelance illustrator currently living in Bangor, Northern Ireland. She graduated with a BA in Illustration from Falmouth University in 2017 and has been illustrating ever since. Erin loves drawing cute, energetic characters and incorporating bright colour palettes and traditional textures into her work. When she isn’t drawing, Erin spends her time reading, playing video games and hanging out with her husband, dog and two cats.
