Bookroo's summary
A bug's ordinary flight turns extraordinary when it's sucked into a vacuum. Trapped in darkness, it navigates the five stages of grief, questioning its fate. Is there hope beyond despair? Will it find unexpected allies in the void? This whimsical journey explores resilience and acceptance in the most unlikely of places.
From the publisher
A bug flies through an open door into a house, through a bathroom, across a kitchen and bedroom and into a living room … where its entire life changes with the switch of a button. Sucked into the void of a vacuum bag, this one little bug moves through denial, bargaining, anger, despair and eventually acceptance – the five stages of grief – as it comes to terms with its fate. Will there be a light at the end of the tunnel? Will there be dust bunnies in the void? A funny, suspenseful and poignant look at the travails of a bug trapped in a vacuum.
