Look inside this beautiful underwater story that talks about grief and courage
Published on: 18 July 2019
The Sea House is a powerful story of the strength of courage and friendship to overcome sadness, which will encourage and reassure young children as well as entertaining them.
One night, grieving nine-year-old Coral cries so much, she fills her house with tears and wakes to find a magical underwater world packed with exciting sea creatures, right inside her own home! But there are some terrifying creatures who have come to the sea house, too. Can Coral find the strength to overcome their darkness, with the help of her new friends?
Inspired by author and BBC Wales presenter Lucy Owen's own grief at the death of her father when she was a teenager, The Sea House (Firefly) is beautifully illustrated with line drawings by Rebecca Harry. In fact, it's the illustrator's FORTIETH published book!
