When two friends are parted, how can they remain close? Ruby moves away to the seaside and misses her best friend so much. But as Ruby walks on the beach one day she finds a sparkling golden strand of hair, and so begins a magical new friendship which shows her how you can be friends even over a long distance. A golden gift of a picture book about friendship, giving, and mermaids!

‘This story about friends who have to part … is touchingly written. It has a gentle rhythm and gives a clear impression of an evolving narrative. The characters and scenes are soft and appealing.’ NURSERY WORLD
