Wider than the Sea

A dyslexia-friendly story of friendship, hope and self-discovery

Ró risks everything in her search for a missing dolphin, and discovers just how powerful she can be. This uplifting novel in verse will inspire listeners of all abilities in its celebration of inclusivity. Perfect for fans of A Kind of Spark.

Ró finds school impossible. She knows people think she's shy - and stupid. But when she goes to the bay each afternoon to watch the dolphin leap through the water, she finds the strength to keep going. Then the dolphin disappears, and everything starts falling apart.

How much is Ró willing to risk to find him?

I watch each rise and dip of wave

know Sunny must be out there

somewhere

wonder if he's missing me.

I remember that moment

when I touched his skin

and know that finding him

is the only thing

that can make

the aching stop

make me feel

not broken.
