When someone we love dies, it can be very hard to find the words to explain to others, and ourselves, how we feel. After all, feelings are feelings. They're not words. Robbie is a young person who is struggling to voice his feelings. His dad has died, leaving him, his mum and his little sister. It takes a rainy day and some puddles to unlock the overwhelming emotions that Robbie is feeling.

Modern life can present many challenges for young people as they strive to cope with growing up in a world which, as a result of peer pressure and unrealistic expectations, can sometimes just seem overwhelming. Charlie is such a child, and one who finds that the solution to these pressures may be found closer to home, and in an unexpected location. Charlie realises that she is not alone in experiencing these feelings and that help, and support is readily available. Charlie discovers where this support can be found and who can provide it in her role as a cherry picker.
