Publisher Summary

A moving and uplifting novel about finding help where you need it, from the internationally acclaimed author and illustrator of The Hunt for the Nightingale. Nora’s mother has good days and bad days, but the bad days are getting worse. When rainbow-shimmering ghost animals begin to appear, she’s convinced that they hold the answers. Along with new friend Kwame, Nora follows a glittering ghostly fox, hare, raven, and otter on the adventure of a lifetime, helping her to find the strength she needs to help herself and her mum.
