Review

'An interesting book about a person who is feeling left out and feeling down and upset. She wants to be alone and her mother takes her to the doctor but doesn t include her in the conversation and her mum tries to make her have pills and medicine. Sonia goes back to the doctor and looks and points out pictures and goes to a councilor on her own, then with her family and finds out what can help her to get better and more involved' --David Corner.
