Together
English
By (author): Luke Adam Hawker
'Dark clouds were looming in the distance. We watched them gather, and we wondered... When will it come? How long will it last?'
A monumental storm brings huge and sudden change. We follow a man and his dog through the uncertainty that it brings to their lives. Through their eyes, we see the difficulties of being apart, the rollercoaster of emotions that we can all relate to, and the realisation that by pulling together we can move through difficult times with new perspective, hope and an appreciation of what matters most in life.
Luke has dedicated the book to his late grandfather, who was a key figure in his life. The main characters are based on his grandfather and his own dog, Robin, who offers a reassuring guide through the challenges of the storm. It's a story with very personal emotion, but one that speaks to us all.
'Though clouds may gather again, and we may see other storms, we have realised most of all that we are stronger facing them... Together.'
