Book description
Troubled Kate is hostile to the idea of moving to the country,
suspecting that the family are only moving because of her problems at
school. But everything goes wrong from the moment they move into the old
farmhouse out in the middle of nowhere - Mum and Dad arguing so much
that Mum moves back to London, school just as much of a problem as ever
and she still can't read properly... Then Kate discovers a reason to try
again: the abandoned garden behind their new home...
