Winner of the Klaus Flugge Prize and the V&A Book Cover Award, now as a collectible small hardback perfect for gifting.

When Sadness arrives, try not to be afraid: give it a name, listen to it and spend some time together. Maybe all it wants is to know that it's welcome. This beautiful debut by author-illustrator talent Eva Eland takes a poignant but uplifting look at dealing with sadness.

Also available: a mini-hardback of the second book in the series, Where Happiness Begins.
