The Light in Everything: Shortlisted for the Yoto Carnegie Medal 2023 is a mesmerizing tale by acclaimed author Balen, whose previous novel, October, October, earned her the prestigious Yoto Carnegie Medal in 2022. This compelling story invites readers into a world filled with emotional depth, exploring the complexities of blended families and the transformative journey of opening one’s heart to new experiences.
At the heart of the novel are Tom and Zofia—two distinctive characters navigating their turbulent emotions. Tom, a quiet and timid boy, struggles with the absence of his father, while Zofia, a spirited girl, wishes to keep her distance from everything. Their worlds intertwine when Tom moves into Zofia’s home, as their parents fall in love and prepare for a new sibling. Initially resistant to the change, both children grapple with their fears and feelings, especially as Tom’s mother falls ill.
Key Features:
- Award-Winning Author: Experience Balen’s impactful storytelling that captivated audiences and critics alike.
- Compelling Characters: Witness the emotional growth of Tom and Zofia as they learn to embrace change together.
- Stunning Illustrations: Enjoy a breathtaking cover designed by CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal winner, Sydney Smith.
The Light in Everything beautifully illustrates themes of trust, love, and resilience, resonating with readers of all ages. Join Tom and Zofia on their unexpected journey, as they discover hope amidst life’s challenges. This powerful narrative is a must-read for those seeking inspiration and heartfelt connections.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.
This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.
We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.
Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
