Huge congratulations to Adam S. Leslie Colin Barrett Liz Hyder and Sophie Elmhirst - hugely worthy category winners of the Nero Book Awards Obviously rooting for Liz for the Golden Nero!!! Thrilled for you all!

It is a truly heartwarming story about a girl from Syria who wants stability and to dance. Her mum is struggling to adjust, her brother is young, and she is missing her dad. This book shows that even though times are hard, there are good people out there. catherine bruton
