‘Gussie will win the hearts of readers’
SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL


The fourth book in the story of Gussie, a young girl born with a serious heart condition. After her heart and lung transplant, Gussie returns with her mother to her home on St Ives, where she experiences life as a ‘normal’ girl. School, friendship, love and separation all play a part in the heartfelt novel, in which the immediate accessibility of Gussie’s narration gives us a fresh perspective on her life.
