Synopsis

'It is, quite simply, a wonderfully moving story' TES

I sometimes wonder if I would have loved Ben quite so much if Mum hadn't shown me his feet first. She lifted up the edge of his coverlet, and I saw his tiny, perfect miniature toes, pink as shells, soft as petals. I hadn't ever seen anything so beautiful in my whole life.

Anna adores her new baby brother. But when she tells her friends about him, Anna can't quite bring herself to explain that he's different. Ben is profoundly disabled - and he brings a joy to Anna's life that changes it for ever...
