The Blessing of Charlie Sand

Best friends Sirus and Bubba fit together like saltfish and bake. That is until Charlie Sand moves into town. All of a sudden Bubba is doing exciting things with a new friend and Sirus doesn't fit in. Can Sirus find a way to share Bubba's friendship with Charlie Sand? Set on the island of Trinidad and aimed at children aged six-ten years old, The Blessing of Charlie Sand is a heart-warming story of friendship.
