'Admirably short and an easy read, but still full of everything that's important in life. And now I want to go to Cumbrae.' -- Bookwitch 'Funny, beautifully written, original and finally extremely moving, this is young teen fiction at its best.' -- Nicholas Tucker, Carousel 'This is an amazingly assured debut novel. Lindsay Littleson is a terrific writer, and I for one can't wait to see what she writes next.' -- John K. Fulton, chimneyrabbit.com '... a charming story set on the West Coast of Scotland. This is a perfect summer story all about families, friends and well some very weird happenings.' -- Armadillo 'This is a gently thought-provoking book, beautifully paced and cleverly structured and it should be on the shelves of every junior school library. Four stars.' -- Books for Keeps 'A summer read to be read at any time of year. 10/10' -- Nayu's Reading Corner 'A gripping and exciting read that gets a big thumbs up from us.' -- PoweredByReading.com '... a fun and quirky read, ideal for fans of Jacqueline Wilson and Sarah Webb.' -- Children's Books Ireland 'This book is a joy to read' -- Iram, Forrester High, Teen Titles 'Brimming with imagination and beautifully written... a charming and engaging read. With plenty of humour and a lovely plot twist this is a great novel for anyone aged 9 and above.' -- Christina Banach, Author of Minty
