From the publisher

". . . a scintillating romp with a heart of gold."- BookPage "...[a] lively, lovely picture book about found family, fun adventures, and the meaning of 'home." - Foreword Reviews Meet Little Ghost and Robot in this spellbinding tale about chosen family and what it means to belong, from the creator of the prize-winning Bear and the Piano series. Little Ghost and Robot make unlikely friends: one is emotional, the other logical. But they have something important in common--they know what it's like to be different. As they journey through the bustling city together, they encounter moments of quiet courage that help each of them see the world in new and surprising ways. These discoveries reveal to Little Ghost and Robot not only the wonder that exists beyond the walls of their old lives, but also the strength that comes from standing side by side. Over the course of a sweeping adventure, the pair realize that, while the world may see them as outsiders, they can find belonging in each other--a sense of connection that makes each one finally feel as though they have found their forever home. Written and illustrated by bestselling creator and exceptional talent, David Litchfield, this moving picture book offers readers a heartfelt celebration of friendship, courage, and found family.
