Publisher's Summary

You can listen to this comforting story for free on your device with the Audible Stories Skill. Just say “Alexa, read me a family story,” or “Alexa, read me a story” to hear more free genres.

A World War I soldier writes a love note to his pregnant wife, puts it in a bottle and drops it in the English Channel. Decades later a fisherman finds it and delivers the message to the daughter the soldier never got to meet. Although this heart-warming tale is fiction, it is based on real-life events.

Andy Ruffel has worked in schools for the past eighteen years as a teacher and head teacher. His debut middle grade novel, Lily Grim & the City of Undone, won the Hachette Children’s Novel Award in 2021.

charming short story

Stumbled on this as I was looking for more by this narrator. Charming short story with a hint of magical realism.
