The resolution in the story was satisfying, and I enjoyed how very real the characters were, including the imperfect mother who says the wrong things without quite meaning to, and that it is Darby who manages to pull everyone back together and fix the storm at the heart of her own family. I also loved that it is about being different, in many different ways, and about acceptance and understanding in everyday life, as well as across wider issues. This is a fast and easy read, aimed probably at children around 8-12, that delves deeper than many books for this age group, and it is written in a sensitively and with a great deal of heart.
Further reading suggestion: If you haven't read it yet, you should definitely take a look at [[A Library of Lemons by Jo Cotterill]], You might also enjoy [[Not My Fault by Cath Howe]].
