  'A spare, beautifully crafted depiction of a fourteen-year-old whose goal of escaping poverty is challenged by friendship with a single teenage mother. These girls could be from more than one ethnic group and almost any inner city. Powerfully moving.' Kirkus'This is a book you must read. It will change you, maybe a little, maybe a lot. It doesn't matter. Just read it. That's all I ask.' Sara Windgate Gray (18), In Brief
