review:
'Joy' by Corrinne Averiss with illustrations by Isabelle Follath is a story about a little girl who wants to help, but finds some things are elusive.

Fern loves her Nanna. She loves Nanna's butterfly cakes and her cat, Snowball, but lately Nanna hasn't been herself. Fern talks with her mum and learns that Nanna has lost her joy, so Fern sets out to find it for her. She takes things to the park to try to collect some joy for Nanna. She sees it all around, but she is unable to catch and keep any of it. Can Fern find a way to help her Nanna?

This story is very heartfelt, and I loved the illustrations that accompany. There are some fun lessons here about how even the littlest can help. I really liked this story about finding and sharing joy.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Quarto Publishing Group - Frances Lincoln Childrens, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
