Series: Casson Family
Forever Rose is the fifth book in Hilary McKay's hilarious and award-winning Casson Family series. It's tough being the youngest. Rose comes home to a dark, quiet, empty house every day - her sisters and brother are always so busy. Indigo has his guitar lessons and paper round, Saffy is off with Sarah, and who knows where Caddy is since she disappeared with Michael's postcards. School isn't any better. Exams are looming, and vindictive Mr Spencer has cancelled Christmas! When will Rose get the happy ever after she has read about in books? Follow the family's adventures in the rest of the beloved series: Saffy's Angel, Indigo's Star, Permanent Rose, Caddy Ever After and Caddy's World.

Reviews for Forever Rose

McKay has a genius for domestic comed * The Sunday Times * Warm, witty and wise, with unfeasibly broad appeal and proven anti-depressive properties, i would give this book to 9-year olds, teenagers and their parents * Sunday Telegraph * ... hugely entertaining story effortlessly recreates a tightly knit world, imbued with a strong sense of belonging - a slice of childhood so multi-layered, touching and real that there's something for every child reader to identify with and savour. Here's a book that truly proves the joys to be had from reading * Books for Keeps * Stylishly written, acutely observed, light-headed and often very funny. At times, it's also incredibly touching and insightful, particularly when dealing with the complexities of family life ... quality writing for children * School Librarian * Makes everything you wish for come true * Sunday Times *
