Amy and Louie are the best of friends. But when Amy's family moves far across the ocean, the colour drains out of their lives - until Louie finds a way to restore their special bond. "Subtle, direct, and profound, this quiet story communicates the deep joy and unbreakable bonds that true friends share, and it will reassure little ones who know firsthand the aching sadness that separation brings." - Booklist, starred review
