An unforgettable middle grade novel about friendship, grief, and the power of speaking your truth--told with warmth, honesty, and hope.

A sensitive and rich children's novel--a thoughtful, warm reflection on overcoming loss and embracing change. --Foreword Reviews

Ten-year-old Amelia has always had her chinchilla, Calvin, to confide in. But now Calvin is gone, and her parents say he's in a better place. Without her fuzzy companion, Amelia struggles to process the big feelings that come with losing a pet, missing the school talent show, and drifting from her best friend. Who is she supposed to talk to now?

Just when Amelia feels completely alone, a new classmate arrives, and things slowly begin to shift. Set in a charming seaside town in Portugal and paired with tender black-and-white illustrations, Calvin and the Sugar Apples is a lyrical and heartfelt middle grade debut about healing, friendship, and finding your voice.

Here's why readers love Calvin and the Sugar Apples:

- EMOTIONAL HONESTY: A gentle and relatable story that helps kids process grief, loss, and change with sensitivity and warmth.
