Ró risks everything in her search for a missing dolphin, and discovers just how powerful she can be. This uplifting novel in verse will inspire readers of all abilities in its celebration of inclusivity. Perfect for fans of A Kind of Spark.

Ró finds school impossible. She knows people think she's shy - and stupid. But when she goes to the bay each afternoon to watch the dolphin leap through the water, she finds the strength to keep going. Then the dolphin disappears, and everything starts falling apart.

How much is Ró willing to risk to find him?


I watch each rise and dip of wave
know Sunny must be out there
somewhere
wonder if he's missing me.
I remember that moment
when I touched his skin
and know that finding him
is the only thing
that can make
the aching stop
make me feel
not broken.
