Honey Darling

Yrsa Walldén

“Image is key for us right now,” says Tone, spreading an outrageous amount of fake butter on a half-burnt piece of toast. (Yes, she also likes her toast half-burnt. And she’s vegan. Honestly, she’s the coolest person on the planet.)
“Honey Darling has to make an impression the moment people see us, before we’ve even sung a single note.”
“Especially since none of us can actually sing,” I say, stuffing half a piece of toast into my mouth.

Something has to happen. Otherwise, Signy is going to die of boredom in the library armchair. The only people who seem to be having any fun are Wille and Arvid, with their black jeans, heavy boots, and band rehearsals. Maybe Signy and her best friend Tone could be more like them?

But how do you start a band when your only musical experience consists of a few recorder lessons in primary school?

Where others see obstacles, Tone sees opportunities, and before long, Honey Darling is born. Now all they have to do is reinvent their style and start rehearsing for the school concert!

A high-energy, laugh-out-loud story for young readers about friendship, daring to be yourself, and chasing big dreams, even when you have no idea about what you’re doing.
