Dandelion Clocks

by Rebecca Westcott
Dandelion Clocks - Thryft
Dandelion Clocks - Thryft

Touching tale of family and resilience.

Dandelion Clocks would be a great read for young adult readers who enjoy heartfelt stories. The book's unique feature lies in how it combines Liv's journey with her mother's childhood diaries, adding a poignant dimension to the story. Readers will be moved by the themes of family, love, and resilience that are presented in a relatable and accessible way.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Dandelion Clocks by Rebecca Westcott Smith will be loved by fans of Jacqueline Wilson, Cathy Cassidy or Annabel Pitcher. Liv takes us on a journey through her life from "Thirteen Weeks Before" to "Six Months After". We discover Liv's passion for photography, her brother's obsession with sticking to the rules, the stupidity of Moronic Louise at school, and how the family copes as Mum's terminal illness takes hold...Guided by Mum's own childhood diaries, Liv finds a new way to live. This book is real, funny, utterly touching and absolutely heartwarming. Despite the sadness at the heart of the story, every reader will laugh and keep on turning the pages, charmed by Liv and her mum. "A brilliantly told, ultra modern story about a significant six months in eleven year old Olivia's life - it should be sold with a large box of tissues!" (Jacqueline Wilson).
