If You Read This

More about the book

Ever since Brie's Mama died, everyone has been treating her differently. Her friends act like she's made of glass that might break, and even her beloved Nana seems to be hiding things from her. When her distant Papa returns after missing her Mama's funeral, Brie knows she can't forgive him. But he comes bearing a special gift: a message that will take Brie and her friends on an adventure all across their island home that will change everything. Vividly evocative, If You Read This is a life-affirming story of self-discovery and coming to terms with losing a parent, and of how sometimes, the way to honour memories is to create new ones.
