Description
Cora Seen and Heard by Zanni Louise is a heartfelt story about Cora Lane, a girl who gets tongue-tied, is often ignored, and would rather hide in the library than step onto a stage.
When her parents decide to renovate an old theatre in small-town Tasmania, Cora sees it as the perfect opportunity to reinvent herself. Enter Cora 2.0, stage left.
However, Cora quickly slips back into her old ways, befriending the librarian instead of kids her own age. Feeling lost and frustrated by not being the person she wants to be, Cora shares her deepest feelings with an imaginary pen pal. The last thing she expects is for her letters to go missing.
Now, the real Cora Lane is about to go public. But is she ready?
