About this ebook
Tara Brown's goldfish has died. A picture story about a small heartbreak.
When Tara's goldfish dies, she is very sad. She mopes and grieves. A little bird tells her to get a bumbershoot! Intrigued, Tara steps outside to find out more.
Suddenly there are umbrellas unfolding everywhere.
By externalizing her loss, Tara realises that she is part of something larger.

I am first and foremost a reader. I love languages: each language opens another door. I enjoy writing children's stories, especially picture books. I also paint and sculpt.
