A Library of Lemons by Jo Cotterill

A Library of Lemons by Jo Cotterill

Calypso copes with her mother's death and her father's withdrawal into his own grief by burying herself in facts and research projects — most recently, an obsessive study of lemons — until a new, warm-hearted friend at school starts gently pulling her back toward feeling things directly again.

Cotterill writes childhood grief with real sensitivity, letting Calypso's factual obsessions function as a believable coping mechanism rather than a quirky gimmick, and the slowly developing friendship gives the novel genuine warmth without minimising how hard grief actually is for a child to process.

A tender middle-grade novel about grief, friendship and learning to feel again.
