About this book
This is a middle-grade fiction book that blends mystery, imagination, and coming-of-age moments. On a small island where life can feel uneventful, a thirteen-year-old girl who sometimes imagines herself as seven versions of herself sets off a chain of events after following a cat off a train. The central theme is identity, curiosity, and how secrets reshape a community. It’s a fitting pick for readers roughly aged 9–13 who enjoy atmospheric settings, gentle humor, and a stirring sense of adventure.
The reading experience is story-led and grounded in a vivid sense of place.
