Step into an alpine adventure set in the harsh world of snow, ice, and rock. Follow Blue Sky, a girl raised by ibex, as she explores questions of identity, belonging, and self-reliance. Perfect for fans of classic children's literature and timeless fantasy fables.
Like any normal girl, Blue Sky just wants to fit in. But there's a lot about her life that's not normal. Like how she's the only human living in the high Alps with a herd of ibex. Or like how she might only be a dream. (How else can she explain her unusual life?)
Tor, the ibex leader, claims the girl has no place with the herd, and he banishes Sky and her animal stepparents to a hostile part of the mountains to endure a bitter winter alone.
The future looks bleak and hopeless until Sky rescues a young alpinist from a stormy peak, and he tells her of the mysterious world beyond the crags. Sky longs to follow the boy on his adventures in that other world, but she knows she can't leave the mountains until she fulfills her destiny with the ibex.
When her chance finally arrives, Blue Sky will have to be braver than ever, believe in herself when no one else will, and risk losing the only life she has ever known to make her dreams come true.
