'A lyrical and optimistic tale about the power of possibility and perspective, told from the point of view of a child experiencing a family breakdown.
'Frankie’s parents have separated, and her world has fallen apart, much like the precious vase that broke on the day Dad left. But then Nana takes her to an art gallery where she falls in love with a massive mosaic, built from a ceramicist’s broken works after an earthquake. Frankie realises that though the pieces of her life may never fit together again as they did before, there is a chance that from the ‘broken’ pieces she will be able to rebuild a new beautiful life.'
