"Heart-stopping. A need to read novel." Kit de Waal, author of My Name is Leon "A brave, important, heart-breaking book." Emma Flint, author of Little Deaths *** Jesika is four and a half. She lives in a flat with her mother and baby brother and she knows a lot. She knows their flat is high up and the stairs are smelly. She knows she shouldn't draw on the peeling wallpaper or touch the broken window. And she knows she loves her mummy and baby brother Toby. She does not know that their landlord is threatening to evict them and that Tobys cough is going to get much worse. Or that Paige, her new best friend, has a secret that will explode their world.

Awww.......💔 If you liked My Name is Leon you‘ll like this. It‘s sad and awful things happen to people, but especially the children. Life sucks sometimes. I can‘t say anymore without spoilers.

ephemeralwaltz :(... But I really liked My Name is Leon so I'm stacking this! 7y
Kalalalatja Stacked! Is it weird you had me at “sad and awful things”? 😳😳 7y
TrishB @Kalalalatja that usually convinces me too!! (edited) 7y
