Written and illustrated by: Oliver Jeffers.
A tale told as much through the illustrations, as the text.
A young girl has a very close relationship with her grandfather — and after his death, she changes and puts her heart away in a bottle. Then a new curious little girl arrives in her life — but her heart is locked away.
An allegorical tale of the long-term damage and hurt caused by grief.
Ages: 5 to 7 years old / 7 to 9 years old.
