Description
Rat's friend Jackdaw is worried - Rat hasn't been herself lately. It seems like she is somewhere else ... somewhere sad. Rat wishes she could tell Jackdaw what's been troubling her, but she doesn't have the words.
So, instead, she runs out by herself just as a storm starts rolling in. Lost, alone and frightened in the belly of the storm, at her lowest moment Rat meets an unexpected friend who teaches her to listen to the storm - screaming its loneliness and singing its sadness - and helps her to find her own voice.
A moving, cathartic and sensitive exploration of depression, from the creator of Circles in the Sky.
