The Boy and the Flame

A stunningly imaginative picture book about embracing change and discovering the magic it brings, from internationally bestselling author-illustrator Beatrice Blue.

Lucien has always found change a little frightening whether it's trying unfamiliar foods, moving to a new home or making new friends. But one stormy night, when a gust of wind blows open his window and extinguishes his fire, he notices a single ember still glowing. To his amazement, the ember transforms into a glowing boy who leads Lucien on an enchanting journey through four seasons in a single day.

Along the way, Lucien encounters new animal friends and experiences the beauty of the ever-changing seasons. Through his adventure, he learns that change isn't something to fear-it's a wonderful, natural part of life, filled with exciting opportunities and endless possibilities.
