Synopsis

'There once was a girl named Bruna. She lived in a little hut all by herself and she was always cold.' However hard Bruna tries, she always feels chilly. She bundles herself up in lots of clothes, she piles duvets and blankets on the bed, and surrounds herself with hot water bottles. Even travelling to distant, sunny lands doesn't make a difference. But when Bruna returns home she strikes up an unexpected friendship, which is warming in more ways than one This memorable story with all the charm of a classic fairy tale, illustrated in delicate and flowing watercolour, is sure to win the hearts of all who read it. A magical tale from the acclaimed illustrator of Tom Finger
