With the strength of love, encouragement and never giving up hope, she can help her mother rise above her unseen pain. The thoughtful narrative and beautiful illustrations combine to sensitively explore the idea of change within a person who is dealing with depression. This story is about hope and the strength of family love. This sensitive story explores the magical relationship between a mother and daughter & the transformation of this relationship as the mother suffers through depression. Her daughter comes up with solutions on how to get her 'laughing, cuddling mummy back' whilst trying to understand and make sense of her mothers' sadness.' (Publication summary)
