This debut novel is a poignant exploration of grief,
change, and hope, perfect for fans of Lisa Graff and Lindsey Stoddard.
After Kitty’s mother dies on an inappropriately sunny
Tuesday, all Kitty wants is for her life to go back to “normal”—whatever that
will mean without her mum. Instead, her dad announces that he, Kitty, and her
sister are moving from their home in London to New York City, and Kitty will
need to say goodbye to the places and people that help keep her mother’s memory
alive.
New York is every bit as big and bustling as Kitty’s heard,
and as she adjusts to life there and befriends a blue-haired boy, she starts to wonder if her memories of her
mum don’t need to stay in one place—if there’s a way for them to be with Kitty
every day, everywhere.

Testo aggiuntivo
"Kitty is a perceptive narrator, keenly aware of the emotional currents around her. Clark’s characters, both adult and child, are fully realized and slightly eccentric without being caricatures. The book takes a thoughtful approach to grief and recovery, exploring Kitty’s emotional growth in a nondidactic way."
