As it was my birthday recently, I had this new in paperback book that originally came out a year ago.
Floss's parents are divorced, and she divides up her week, spending
five days with her mum, her new stepdad and her baby half-brother. The
other two days Floss spends with her dad, helping him to run his greasy
spoon cafe. But their simple arrangement is thrown into disarray when
Floss's mum decides to move to Australia.
Making the
difficult decision to stay at home, Floss moves in permanently with her
dad and they muddle along happily together, surviving on chip butties
and enjoying visits to the local funfair. But disaster strikes - Dad's
money troubles catch up with him and they have to move out of the cafe.
They're homeless - but can their new fairground friends help out?
This is what the story explores.
