    Winner of the Eilis Dillon Award for debut children's book at the KPMG Children's Books Ireland Awards 2024!Ro 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.

    Can Ro overcome her fears 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.
