DescriptionA sweet and emotional novel about friendship, family and accepting change from a fresh new voice. Freya's world is turned upside down when she and her mum move to inner-city Melbourne... Stuck in a new apartment on the eleventh floor and Freya is afraid of lifts. Stuck in a new basketball team where not everyone likes a killer new player. Stuck in a classroom of kids who don't know Freya is a donor-conceived baby. Stuck, just like little Audrey in the Skipping Girl sign suspended in mid-air over the suburb of Abbotsford. Being the new girl makes Freya feel like a dark cloud on a summer's day. Can she figure out how to belong on Vinegar Street? 'Very tender and also very funny - a tumbling collage of words and wonderings, fears and triumphs, where the child's world is both the hard, real thing and the stuff of magic,' URSULA DUBOSARSKY, Australian Children's Laureate 2020-2021 |
