This is an enjoyable read, for adults as well as for younger readers. It could help adults - inside or outside prison - to think a bit more about the 160,000 children with parents in prison, and what they go through. But far more importantly, it could help children like Poppy who have a parent inside. Her story might help them feel less alone.
(Inside Time)'This is an accomplished and perceptive story of a feisty, yet angry and bewildered girl as she deals with the pain of her dad's downfall when he goes to prison. Rachel Billington tenderly explores the complex emotions of children like Poppy.'
(Julia Eccleshare)I would recommend it to other teenagers.
(reviewed by a teenager Teen Titles)This book is an excellent read ... with an original storyline, interesting format and a believable ending.
(School Librarian)a fast-moving story about family, friends and adventure.
(School Librarian)Sharply realistic, far removed from many stories on this theme, in which the accusation against a parent turns out to be an unjust and horrible mistake.
(Books for Keeps)A well observed story inspired by the author's 20 years of prison work.
