When thirteen-year-old Tegan discovers a battered lorikeet clinging to life on her backyard fence, she recognises a kindred spirit in its weary eyes. Still recovering from a devastating illness that left her frail and uncertain, Tegan vows to save the bird she names Skittles-a shimmering symbol of hope in a world that once felt too heavy to bear. But healing a creature as broken as herself won't be easy. With feathers dulled by neglect and a heartbeat as fragile as her own resolve, Skittles needs more than medicine; he needs someone who understands what it means to fight.
As Tegan battles to nurse Skittles back to health, their bond deepens, revealing a shared strength neither knew they had. But when the bird's recovery sparks an unexpected opportunity to help others-children facing battles of their own-Tegan must confront a terrifying question: Can the broken parts of our past become the very thing that mends someone else's future?
A story of resilience, friendship, and the quiet magic of second chances, Skittles asks: What if saving one small life could change your own forever?
Perfect for fans of heartfelt middle-grade novels like The One and Only Ivan and Wishtree, this uplifting tale will leave you believing in the power of hope-one feather at a time.

Renee Conoulty is an Aussie author, narrator and independent publisher.
In the mornings, she wrangles her two kids off to school (who are also Aussie authors and narrators). During the day, she supports children with disabilities to learn and helps run the school library. During the evening, she enjoys a rare quiet moment watching TV with her husband, amid the chirping of the budgies, yowling of the cat, barking of the dog and scratching of the rats and mice. Thank goodness the fish are quiet.
Somewhere in between all these distractions, she writes sweet romance, women's fiction, beginner chapter books and picture books.
