WINNER OF THE KATE GREENAWAY MEDAL
SELECTED AS ONE OF THE TIMES BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR
SELECTED AS ONE OF THE IRISH INDEPENDENT'S BEST CHILDREN'S BOOK OF THE YEAR
Being small can be overwhelming in a city. People don't see you. The loud sounds of the sirens and cyclists can be scary. And the streets are so busy it can make your brain feel like there's too much stuff in it. But if you know where to find good hiding places, warm dryer vents that blow out hot steam that smells like summer, music to listen to or friends to say hi to, there can be comfort in the city, too.
