Mostly shadows follow us, but occasionally it-s wise to follow your shadow. Lika doesn-t give much thought to her shadow. Sometimes it-s long, sometimes it-s short- but it is never more than a shadow. Until one day it begins acting strangely. When Lika waves a hand, Shadow raises a foot. When Lika sits down, Shadow stands up. Lika hides in a darkened room, but the more she hides, the bigger Shadow becomes, until it picks her up and deposits her in a land of shadows, at the heart of which is a terrifying shadow circus. Lika must learn to listen to her shadow to find her way back. This is a book by the acclaimed author of Grand Hotel of Feelings about accepting the parts of us that we try to hide from- Because where there is darkness there is also light, and when the shadows dance it is always a good idea to join the fun.
