Bookroo's summary
In a world where shadows can lose their companions, one shadow embarks on a heartfelt quest to reunite with its boy. As it journeys through a landscape of longing and discovery, the shadow yearns for the bond that once defined its existence. Will it find the connection it seeks, or remain forever adrift? This poetic tale explores themes of friendship and the universal desire to belong.
From the publisher
Award winning author/illustrator Clay Rice has created a beautifully poetic tale about a boy’s shadow who has lost his boy and goes in search for him. “I have no you, you have no me, you and me we have no we, but if I find you and you find me, happy we will always be.” The Lonely Shadow sings a universal song. Clay Rice brings the shadow to life and allows us to take a journey with him in search of something, someone who connects with him. It’s a story of longing, a story of discovery, a story of friendship.
