Listening for Lucca Summary

Listening for Lucca by Suzanne LaFleur

Listening for Lucca is perfect for 9+ girls who love Jacqueline Wilson. Summer on the beach, a sprinkling of magic and a ghostly mystery of the past intertwine in an irresistible and compelling story from the author of the acclaimed Love, Aubrey.

'Lucca led me to his room, and then just stood in the middle, waiting for me to notice something'. Her brother Lucca is three and hasn't spoken for over a year. The doctors think he needs a fresh start, that's why her family left Brooklyn.
