Forever Rose

by Hilary McKay

Being the youngest isn’t easy, and Rose Casson is feeling it more than ever. With Saffy off with Sarah, Indigo busy with his paper round, Eve quarantined in the shed, Bill stuck in London, and Caddy missing in action, Rose is left to come home to an empty house—except for David, and he’s the last person she wants to see.

School isn’t much better. Mr Spencer is obsessed with SATs, shouting constantly and—worst of all—he’s cancelled Christmas! But he can’t cancel the class trip, and that gives Rose the perfect chance to help her friend Molly with her mysterious One Big Idea.

Can Rose bring some Christmas cheer back to Class 6—and the Casson family? (Book 5)
