Beauty Catches the Eye. Kindness Catches the Heart.
In the cheerful village of Meadowbrook live two sisters as different as dawn and dusk. Elise has the kind of beauty that makes shopkeepers give her free sweets just for smiling. Nora has the kind of heart that makes people feel seen. But when drought threatens the village, the council must send someone to a neighboring village to ask for aid - and the choice they make tells two sisters something they will never forget. A gentle, traditional fable about quiet kindness, with the wisdom of Grandma Lupe woven through every page.
