Happy #sundayshelfie day! It is my pleasure to welcome Dimity Powell and Heidi Cooper Smith. This week we are celebrating their wonderful new picture book The Boy Who Lost His Laugh.
Tim is always losing things when he travels — he is a foster child, and often moves from one family to the next. One day he realizes he has lost something very precious: his laugh. Then he moves in with the Lee family, and some news arrives that might just help Tim find his laugh again.

The Boy Who Lost His Laugh takes a sensitive look at foster care from the child’s perspective, and shows how humour and love can help you bounce back and find what you’ve been looking for all along.
