A heart-warming novel for readers aged 8+
“We're often asked to recommend books for children with family members experiencing dementia - here is a middle grade novel that explores the subject beautifully. The story is sensitively told, with humour, witty dialogue and characters that young readers will find immediately relatable.”
~Sarah
Twelve-year-old Luca Verani has his future all mapped out: who needs school when he's going to take over his family's ice cream cafe? But then his aunt announces she's selling the struggling business and Luca realises that his nonna's memory is disappearing. Plus, he's starting high school and one of his best friends Sitara is being targeted by racist bullies. As Luca's worries pile up, will his dreams melt away?
