Summary

A compelling and heartwarming story about a girl's determination to find out what happened to her dad and the uncertainty she faces in the days following his disappearance. From the acclaimed author of Little Bits of Sky.


Luna's dad left in the middle of the night but nobody else seems worried. As the days go by, Luna tries to make sense of her dad's behaviour in the weeks before he left and, together with her sister Jade, starts looking for clues. They uncover some uncomfortable truths, and worried for their dad's safety, the two sisters set out to find him.


While Jade is outgoing and optimistic, Luna finds comfort in numbers, her dreams of being an astronaut and a passion for space science that she shares with her father.


A powerful look at family life, changing friendships and resilience in the face of fear and uncertainty.

By representing and supporting the diverse culture of our modern age, Four Fairies Tell Tales aims to create a more inclusive society for all.

    Hi I'm a little boy who goes to the woods most weeks with my parents. While my mommy gets our picnic ready, I like to play with my friends the animals. Today I've been playing with squirrels, we had great fun climbing trees and running around. Then the squirrels got hungry and took me to a secret spot where they had hidden their nuts. We all had one, only I couldn't open mine and smallest squirrel rolled over laughing. Then they took me to a big tree to climb.  "I can't climb that, it's too big for me to climb".  "Just follow me" said baby squirrel.  Before I realised it, I was sitting on the top of the tree looking out across all the trees and I could see other animals running around. I decided that I would play with other animals next time and see the squirrels again.
