A healing narrative about the return of light and joy to everyday life that has been rendered dark and colourless by tragic events.

Nobody smiles or laughs in the village near the edge of the world since a terrible tragedy cast a dark shadow over the town. There is no colour or liveliness anymore. All that changes the day Toby McPhee finds some magical silver pots. With the help of the beautiful pigments inside, Toby gradually brings life back to the village. A simple tale about a small fishing village that is healed by the magic of colour.

Industry Reviews
This would make an excellent picture book to treat with older primary kids. I believe the story will touch kids' hearts and lead to some productive discussion about tragedy, how it affects us and what we can do to move on from its devastating consequences. * The Book Chook *
