A little boy experiences family violence and physical abuse, and he turns inwards and is unable to express his feelings and sadness. Gradually, through the help of his nan, his cousin, uncle and a child psychologist he rebuilds his self-esteem and begins to find happiness again and regains a sense of who he is and where he belongs. As he feels people’s love and their belief in him, his inner light warms and grows. He finds he can do things, feel joy again and connect with people.

"This series of books are stunning reads around love and loss, with a view to support the well-being of young people. [Each] has at the heart the value base of kaupapa Māori, showing the creative and unique ways in which adults can support children’s feelings and growth when coping with difficult life events. They exemplify how to build resilience, showing coping mechanisms to navigate the pathway of life with a sense of well-being and a connection to whanāu."
