Charlie and Me by Mark Lowery
How far would you go to say goodbye? Martin and Charlie are journeying 421 miles across England to find out, but are they prepared for what they find when they get there?Thirteen-year-old Martin and his younger brother Charlie are on a very special journey. They're traveling 421 miles all the way from Preston in northern England to the very tip of Cornwall in the southwest. By train, bus, and taxi, they are determined to get there to catch a glimpse of the dolphin that regularly visits the harbor and made last year's family vacation so special. But is that the only reason they are going?
Mom stays in bed all day and Dad is always at work. Martin is doing his best to be a good big brother, but Martin must come to terms with why he and Charlie are making the journey to Cornwall in the first place.
Charlie and Me is an unforgettable novel that is funny, adventurous, and heartbreaking.
Soon to be a major motion picture in the UK in 2026 called 500 Miles starring Bill Nighy, Maisie Williams, and Roman Griffin Davis.
