Reviews
A wonderful book that had me very close to tears about a girl whose mum has been murdered by her dad (though she doesn’t realise that) & races to Greenwich to have a star named after her. It has all the thrill of adventure & racing against time that The Boy at the Back of the Class had & great characterisation of the different foster children.
