Description
Lucy has always been fascinated by the mysterious green man who lives in her grandfather's garden. According to Grandpa, only very special people can see him, and Lucy is determined to catch a glimpse. She's not alone in her belief - her parents think Lob is just imaginary, but Lucy knows he exists. One day, she finally spots him in the gooseberry bushes, but her world is about to be turned upside down by a terrible event. As Lucy struggles to come to terms with what's happened, she must also confront the possibility that she may never see Lob again. This poignant and thought-provoking story explores the complexities of grief and loss, and the enduring power of love and memory. With its vivid and evocative illustrations, this book brings a real and relatable character to life, and will resonate with readers who have experienced loss or are struggling to cope with difficult emotions.
