When Nyla has to leave her home in the countryside to start life again in the city, all she can think about is everything she misses from before. So when a comet comes crashing through the city streets and starts to glow and grow, Nyla can't resist a chance to head somewhere that feels closer to what she had before . but what starts as an escape could be just the thing to make her finally feel at home. From the award-winning Joe Todd-Stanton, comes an exquisite and heartfelt picture book touching on the bewildering experience of moving house. This beautiful story explores how this can affect a child's sense of belonging, but also how it can open them up to new and wonderful experiences.

This book is fiction, but so many people can relate to it. The character I like the most is the dad because even though he has work and Nyla has made so much mess when he sees the comet, he understands. Yes, I would recommend this book to someone younger than me, not my age.

This story was sad to start, the girl was very sad to leave her nice house and the stars and the countryside. After a while, her and her daddy made changes and decorated the flat to make it nicer.
