About this ebook
This is a read-along edition with audio synced to the text, performed by Helena Bonham Carter.
Award-winning picture book star Oliver Jeffers explores themes of love and loss in this life-affirming and uplifting tale.
Once there was a girl who was full of wonderment at how the world worked. She shared all her dreams and excitement with her father, who always had the answer to every question. That is until one day when his chair was empty, not to be filled again – how would the girl ever find meaning from her life again?

Not what we expected but very good for its genre. My son wondered how she got the heart out safely. He liked the pictures.
