“We're so lucky,” said Gran. “We've just enough for two.”

Jess and Gran have always made the best of everything. When there’s not much for dinner, they cook oodles of noodles. When there’s no cake for birthdays, they toast marshmallows on the stove.

When it snows in the mountains, Jess longs to go. But there’s no extra money for a holiday this year.

So Jess finds a way to see the most amazing snow of all.

Jacaranda Snow is about one family that lives with less money but plenty of love and optimism.
