From a Pulitzer Prize–nominated author and a New York Times bestselling illustrator comes a heartfelt story about moving somewhere new, the meaning of home, and making new friends. A little girl sends a message in a bottle as she says goodbye to the home she has always known. With the bags packed and the farewells said, she begins her journey to a new place, and she Will the moon and stars look different when she’s gone? But soon it will be time to say hello—to her new world…and maybe even to a new friend? This touching picture book is a tribute to the power of new beginnings and the simple joy of human connection.
