Description
A great dam was built over Kielder Water in Northumberland, but before it was finished, two musicians returned to the valley below. They tore down the boards covering the houses and started to play, creating music that would be heard for one last time in this place. This poignant picture book by David Almond explores themes of loss, hope, and music, paying tribute to all musicians who have ever brought their creativity to life. The story is beautifully illustrated by Levi Pinfold, making it an astonishing combination of art and emotion. The result is a powerful and moving picture book that celebrates the enduring power of music and creativity.
