"The daughter of an artist and a scientist, and your own interesting self, Millie. What more could you need? But Millie isn't sure that Tom, her mum's boyfriend, is right about that. A new town, a school project due, an enemy called Tayla, a boy with the initials RH and Tom himself. It's all too much even for an interesting girl like Millie. But as her father says, change is needed, and sometimes it's the biggest changes that make us who we are. Millie and the Night Heron is a gentle, lyrical and moving tale from award-winning author Catherine Bateson which reminds us all to stop and remember the important things in life.
