my story is called Forever Rose. It`s wrote by a lady called Hilary McKay.

It`s all about Disasters, catastrophes, Friends, adventures, Homes. I think it`s mosly aimed at teenagers.

Rose is lonely. Her family are always busy doing their own things so Rose comes home to a dark, quiet, empty house every day. Saffy(roses friend) is off with Sarah, Indigo(roses brother) has his paper round and guitar lessons, Eve's in quarantine in the shed, Bill's not much use in London, and who knows where Caddy(roses friend) is since she disappeared with Michael's postcards! The only one around is David(indigos friend) and Rose would rather be alone than be with him!At least Rose still has her friends at school: the brilliant Kiran and the nice but boring Molly. But school is no longer a peaceful place where Rose can daydream. Mean Mr Spencer is always shouting about SATs. And now he's cancelled Christmas! But one thing Mr Spencer can't cancel is the Christmas School Trip which means Rose can help Molly with her ONE BIG IDEA but what could that be?

I like this book it has a bits that are funny bits that are sad. The bit i don`t like about it is that lots of things happen and it`s hard to understand. But its a good book.
