The Cold

"A new world, all at once."The first thing Seru notices about San Francisco is the cold.Then the fog. Then the noise, the crowds, the hills, the orange sky with no stars at all. Everything here is different - the buildings, the smells, the way strangers pass without stopping. Back home, Seru knew everyone. Here, he knows no one.But as he lies awake that first night, listening to the strange new sounds of the city, Seru begins to do what he has always done best: pay attention, one thing at a time. Because even a city this big can be learned - the way you learn a reef.A warm, honest story about arriving somewhere new, and finding your feet when everything feels strange.*Book Six of the Seru From the Sea series · Ages 8-11*
