A classic story about a magical miniature family's adventures in wartime Japan.
In a dusty library, in the quietest corner of a house in Tokyo, live the Little People: Fern, Balbo, Robin and Iris. Just a few inches high, sleeping in cigarette boxes and crafting shoes from old book jackets, they need only one thing from their Humans - a nightly glass of milk, served in a sparkling blue glass goblet.
But when the Second World War comes to Japan, both Humans and their beloved Little People face a world they could never have imagined. It will take great love, bravery, and the help of one very loyal pigeon to bring their unique families back together...
The Secret of the Blue Glass is a timeless adventure and a heartwarming reminder that everyone, no matter how small, can make a difference.
