A short read but one I enjoyed very much * Echoes in an Empty Room *
A touching and moving story * Parents In Touch *
Thought-provoking, immaculately researched and with a big, warm heart, this is a story as delicate and delicious as a bowl of freshly-picked strawberries* Lancashire Evening Post *
A deeply touching story of hidden depths, the hurtfulness of careless words, love and self-acceptance * Metro *
Jelly is funny and loud, but hurting inside, especially about her weight. We see the real person through her poetry, learning and caring as we read * Read for Empathy Guide *
