Grape & Marshmallow

By Renee De Beer

Grape is grumpy and sour, and he likes it that way. Or at least, that's what he tells himself.

Marshmallow is his total opposite: soft and sweet. But when she decides to be his friend, she uncovers the truth behind Grape's grump A past filled with teasing, loneliness, and feeling like he never quite fit in.

This is the story of two very different characters, one hardened by hurt and the other full of light. It shows how kindness can soften even the sourest heart.

A heartwarming, gently funny story about friendship, difference, and learning to let people in.
