Inspired by a true story, a groundbreaking robot helps friendship blossom in this poignant and uplifting story from bestselling author Lisa Thompson.
Anna’s anxious when she’s picked to befriend the new girl in her class. For a start, Ellie is ill and can’t come to school herself, so Anna has to communicate with her through a new kind of robot.
But Anna is also worried that her life’s too small and boring to be of interest to her new friend. Compared to the other girls, she doesn’t have anything exciting to talk about. So when Ellie asks her a question, a little white lie pops out. Then another and another.
When Ellie finds out the truth, can their friendship survive?
'Rich in empathy.'
The Bookseller
'Told in a truly original way ... Nothing small about it except the page extent.'
Phil Earle, award-winning author of Being Billy
'Quiet and gentle as it is, nonetheless this story packs a real punch and is delivered with the warmth, compassion and understanding that mark out Thompson’s writing.'
