Hearts in My Pocket
Leilah misses the time when her mom and dad were together. Ever since they divorced, her world and her heart feel split in two.
For fans of The Invisible String, here is an uplifting and lyrical story about a young girl who learns to navigate her family's divorce.
Leilah misses the time when her mum and dad were together. Ever since they divorced, her world and her heart feel split in two. She explores the city with Dad and walks Pepper at the park with Mum. She and Dad watch fireworks on the balcony, and Mum helps her make snowmen in the front yard.
As Leilah moves back and forth between her two worlds, she wonders if her heart will ever feel whole again. Everything is just so different. Until one day she realises that love is all around her, and the love her parents share for her will always stay the same.
