A storybook that carries a mother’s voice

Anna’s life changes when her mother is imprisoned, leaving her to navigate pain and confusion. With help from her grandmother, teacher, and volunteers, she receives a storybook containing a recording of her mother reading aloud. That connection through a shared story gives the book’s family separation a concrete focus: reading becomes a way for mother and child to remain connected across distance. The description also highlights the support Anna receives from caring adults around her.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 9–12 interested in stories about siblings and family relationships.
  • Young readers exploring themes of parental separation, support, and connection through reading.
