Serena lives among woodland animals but wants a special friend, then becomes best friends with Haiku.
Haiku grows too big for Serena and her cottage, prompting them to travel together to seek an answer.
Serena and Haiku travel across varied landscapes to visit a blue lady who may help through the magic of three stones.
Serena’s wish for a special friend and Haiku’s growth are central points to notice.
This is a grounded book brief while Suitabook strengthens the analysis: the book’s treatment of its main themes is not yet firm enough; some draft conclusions still depend on unresolved evidence.
