On the other side of a window, there is a neighbour.
On the other side of a sadness, there is a hug.

Sometimes we are separated by distance, sometimes by the way we feel. Even though the world is full of barriers that can make us feel unconnected, we are all just on one end of a rainbow. Connected by all that colour and light, there is always something, or someone, waiting for us on the other side. Poetically told with an uplifting message for some of life’s most difficult moments, this book encourages readers to look past their immediate surroundings and find comfort, community, and inner courage all are closer than we might think.
