Sinossi
Nel giorno del suo quattordicesimo compleanno, April ripercorre le tappe della sua vita. Abbandonata in un cassonetto e trovata da un garzone di pizzeria, la bambina attraversa una serie di disavventure: famiglie adottive che si sfasciano, orfanotrofio e istituto di correzione, dove finalmente trova un'insegnante che la porta a vivere con sé. Ora April riesce a guardare il proprio passato con serenità, e ad acettare quella parte di sé che ne aveva fatto, a un certo punto della sua vita, una "bambina cattiva". Età di lettura: da 11 anni.

Jacqueline Wilson's books were what introduced me to the fantastic world of reading, it was what turned me into a book lover and I really must thank Jacqueline Wilson for everything she has done. The great thing about growing up reading Wilson's books is that all her books covers real and important
A very sad tale of a girl's journey through childhood in the context of being abandoned in a dustbin at birth, fostered, adopted, in care, bullied, used for crime, sent to special school and finally finding some stability in time for her teen years (but she still sometimes rebels against that in tha Leggi tutto
