Product description

A beautifully illustrated story of freedom, music and seeking refuge: a truly special creation by the author of Sky Hawk. A small group of refugees are crowded onto a boat far at sea. They share their stories as the boat travels towards the dream of safety. One boy, Rami, has brought his violin. His story of how the violin was invented, and of a stallion that could run like the wind, weaves through all the other stories, uniting them in a celebration of hope…

  • A glorious hymn to equality and freedom by top author Gill Lewis
  • Gill’s award-winning books include Moon Bear and Sky Hawk
  • A lyrical and unforgettable response to the refugee crisis
  • Beautiful charcoal illustrations give this book a very special feel

Before she could walk, Gill Lewis was discovered force-feeding bread to a sick hedgehog under the rose bushes. Now her stories reflect her passion for wild animals in wild places. She draws inspiration from many of the people she has had the fortune to meet during her work as a vet, both at home and abroad. Gill Lewis has a masters degree in Writing for Young People from Bath Spa University and won the 2009 course prize for most promising writer. Her first novel was snapped up for publication within hours of being offered to publishers. She lives in Somerset with her young family and a motley crew of pets. She writes from a shed in the garden, in the company of spiders.
