Description:
A magical story of friendship forged over distance between two children, from very different worlds, who share a common experience of loss and a passion for a life where dreams can come true.
Moonie lives in Melbourne and dreams of designing dresses for movie stars. Eight thousand kilometres away, on Chongming Island in China, peasant boy Little Dipper cares for the silkworms on his family's farm and hopes to learn English.
On the day Moonie's beloved Ma Mi goes away, Little Dipper appears in her house. Before they can speak, he is whisked back home. Aided by a magical silk cocoon, Little Dipper's visits become a regular event and although neither knows how or why they are connected their bond grows each time.
Will the silken threads of friendship be enough to help Moonie bring Ma Mi home, or to save Little Dipper from the troublesome ghosts who stand between him and his dream of learning English?
From one of Australia's most esteemed and award-winning children's authors and Australian Children's Laureate for 2022-23 comes a magical story of kindness, courage and friendship's power to make dreams come true.

I absolutely love these floating shelves.
Color: White, Size: 15.7 inch, Color: White, Size: 15.7 inch
I absolutely love these floating shelves. The design is modern and elegant, perfect for adding both style and organization to a bathroom or any room in the house. They feel very sturdy and well-made, and the white finish looks clean and matches any décor. The metal rails are a great touch and help keep items from falling.
I use them to organize bathroom essentials like wipes, cotton pads, and toilet paper, as well as decorative pieces, and they look amazing. Installation was easy, and once mounted they feel secure and well balanced.
Great quality for the price. I would definitely buy them again and highly recommend them.

I loved this set of 3-piece floating shelves. They arrived well packed and with everything necessary to install them. The installation was quite easy and in a short time I already had them on the wall.
The design is modern and fits with any space. I'm using them to decorate with small plants and some accessories, and they look very pretty. In addition, they feel firm and resistant, they do not seem to be of poor quality.
I like that they come in different sizes, which allows you to play with the distribution and give a more decorative touch to the
