When Rain Turns to Snow is a contemporary coming-of-age story about a thirteen-year-old boy on the run with a baby, and a girl he’s destined to meet. It’s about fate, families, friendship and the perils of social media. About discovering who you really are, about working out how and where you fit in to your family, and with your friendship group. It’s also a story about the way we use social media, about online bullying and call-out culture and the terrible damage it can do, and it’s also a story about Bruce Springsteen.
