Description
A crumbling stone soldier sits on a bench in the park. Owen understands how important he is, and at home, he struggles to talk about his feelings with his mum. In the park, the soldier listens, and Owen's worries slip away. But nobody else cares about the soldier, and the town council wants to tear him down. Owen feels free to be himself in the park, but he needs courage to speak up for the soldier before it's too late. This poignant story explores themes of loss, remembrance, and finding the strength to express oneself. Suitable for readers aged 9+, this book is a powerful exploration of emotions and self-reliance.
