An empowering tale about believing in yourself no matter how small you may feel.

Description

An empowering tale about believing in yourself no matter how small you may feel.

Nina is a small girl living in a BIG city. She loves her home, but she has a secret wish... It begins as a niggle in her tummy, then it grows to an ache in her heart, until one day it grows so much she can no longer contain it:

"I wish this city could be different!" she shouts.

But what can Nina do? She's only small and small things don't count. Then she hears a little voice at her feet...

"Everything starts with something small."

Visually striking and sensitively told, Pooka is the story of one small girl who is empowered by a visit from a magical nature sprite to positively transform her city.
