Neistar (Sparks)

 

An Icelandic children’s book about divorce. Expected to go to print in 2024.

Illustrated by me. Written Hugrún Margrét Óladóttir, mother and children’s/YA library manager, who noticed the need for comforting and encouraging children’s books about carefully considered family changes.

Neistar (Sparks) guides the reader through the loving relationship of Sun and Cloud, and that although they separate, their child, Flower, still has all their needs met in order to blossom.
