Description
Molly lives by the sea in a white cottage with a green door; hundreds of miles away Osho lives by the sea in a white cottage with a blue door. Both of them long to know what lies on the other side of the sea.
This enchanting, lyrical story follows their two stories simultaneously as they ask their question of the people they meet. Then Molly ties a message to a red balloon, and Osho puts a message into a green bottle, and they go to sleep dreaming of a friend far away.
Madeleine Floyd is as gifted a writer as she is an artist, and this book with its lovely watercolours haunts the imagination.
