When Maria rips her brother Robbie’s favorite book, she’s worried that they might never be friends again. But with encouragement and wise words from family friend Ms. Bea, Maria learns to embrace the beauty of broken things and seize the opportunity they offer for healing and reconciliation. This heartfelt story celebrates the perfect imperfections that surround us in our everyday lives and introduces readers to the Japanese art of Kintsugi, which involves repairing broken pottery with lacquer and gold to create something stronger and even more beautiful than the original.

Perry Emerson lives in London with his partner and their much-too-fluffy cat. He mostly edits picture books, but occasionally dabbles in writing them, too. When he's not thinking about words, he enjoys spending time in the kitchen cooking and, more importantly, eating.

Hoang Giang has been working as a children's illustrator for more than 10 years. She works in a studio with her partner and three cats. She also loves comics and graphic novels and dreams of one day finding the time to make her own comic book.
