Caspian Finds a Friend cover

A imaginative picture book about how the power to change our world lies within ourselves.

Caspian lives in a lighthouse surrounded by a cold gray-blue sea. Every day, he watches, wishing for a friend. But no one comes. So, Caspian decides that wishing is not enough. What follows is a friendship story that is tender, warm, and perfect for gift-giving.

Stunningly illustrated and lyrical, this picture book feels fresh yet enduring, and is a reminder of how reaching out to others can change everything.

"This is a heartwarming and encouraging tale. It spurs children to open their hearts and seek out what they wish for. It helps children to recognise that the power to change our world lies within ourselves.⁣" -- Luggy Library
