The Distance Between Me and the Cherry Tree

Giunti

Year: 2023

Pages: 208

There are a lot of things ten-year-old Mafalda cares about. Like counting the stars in the night sky, playing soccer, and climbing the cherry tree outside her school. Mafalda even goes so far as to keep a list of them, since soon she won’t be able to do them anymore— because she’s going blind. Mafalda can see that people are already treating her differently, which is the last thing she wants. But as Mafalda loses her sight, surprising things come into focus. With the help of her family and friends both old and new, Mafalda discovers the things that matter most.
