From the multi-award-winning author of No Ballet Shoes in Syria, Catherine Bruton returns with a story that celebrates all the wonder and solace that nature can bring, even in the most difficult of circumstances.

Frog has always known her younger brother Tad is unwell, but that has never been an obstacle for their unbreakable bond. They share a room and do everything together, always dreaming up new ways to be Wildlife Warriors and exploring with their grandad. But when Tad is taken into hospital, Frog finds it difficult to be in their bedroom alone and starts camping in the garden. She only plans to be there while Tad is away but she finds an unexpected calm amongst the sound of the breeze on the canvas and smell of fresh green grass, as well as a space that is just her own.

As spring turns to summer and the garden buzzes with new life, Tad returns home, bringing with him a roomful of hospital equipment and leaving no space for Frog in their shared bedroom anymore. Unsure of where she fits into their family now, Frog retreats back into the garden, using the excuse of a sponsored camp out for charity. But as her brother’s condition worsens, Frog needs to face the truth that she may not have much longer with him.

Working to bring the small joys of the natural world to Tad, can Frog find a way to make this final summer together unforgettable?

Suitable for 9+ readers, this gorgeously written story sensitively intertwines hope and loss, joy and grief, and will stay in reader’s hearts long after the final page.
