Blog Tour #whenshadowsfall by Sita Brahmachari Illustrations by Natalie Sirett Publisher @littletigerbooks Tiger When Shadows Fall is a timely, lyrical and impactful story of disaffected youth and the vulnerability of teenage years, the importance of friendship, care and community and of urban green spaces. An empathetic and inspirational tour de force that seamlessly combines art, verse and prose to portray a powerful message and story. . .ABOUT THE BOOK Kai, Orla and Zak grew up together, their days spent on the patch of wilderness in between their homes, a small green space in a sprawling grey city. Music, laughter and friendship bind them together and they have big plans for their future – until Kai's family suffers a huge loss. Trying to cope with his own grief, as well as watching it tear his family apart, Kai is drawn into a new and more dangerous crowd, until his dreams for the future are a distant memory. Excluded from school and retreating from his loved ones, it seems as though his path is set, his story foretold. Orla, Zak and new classmate Om are determined to help him find his way back. But are they too late? I was delighted to be invited on this Fabulous Blog Tour for this wonderful book. Below is. A snippet of this fascinating Interview with Sita talking about the importance of Art which is an integral part of her story. Do you think art has the power to heal? Yes. I have always felt that since childhood. As a member of the refugee centre art and writing class said once 'Art is a good way to tell, a good way to express.' Art can transport and reconnect you to many emotions including awe hope and joy.
