Brangle

Brangle lived at the bottom of a deep, dark hole. At the top of the hole, there were many things. All of life happened there— in its clattering, clanking, honking, roaring rush. At the bottom, there was only Brangle. Brangle’s lonely life, the busy world swirling above him, is interrupted when a ball falls into the hole where he lives. A boy appears, searching for his ball and Brangle’s world is changed forever. A hopeful story that tackles loneliness, companionship, the vagaries of popularity and being rescued by true friendship. An emotionally complex book for children, and even adults, about social isolation, the need for relationships, and the joy of companionship.
