Product Description
When Dinnie is 13 she is whisked away to Switzerland by her Aunt and Uncle, leaving her parents, her wayward brother and her young and very pregnant sister behind her. She feels like she has been kidnapped by strangers, but as she starts to make new friends at an exclusive, international boarding school she begins to make some sense of things. From the moment Dinnie is "kidnapped" to the moment she discovers her true self amongst the chaos and disorder that surrounds her, Bloomabilty never loses pace, yet cunningly ensures that the reader is aware of every painful minute of Dinnie's life in Switzerland.
Sharon Creech, author of Chasing Redbird and the Newbury Medal-winning Walk Two Moons, once again proves her dazzling talent in this alluring, cleverly observed novel by taking the tricky subject of growing up and turning it into a tale that is at once heart-breaking and heart- warming. --Susan Harrison

Product Description
The second life of Dinnie Doone began when she was thirteen. In Dinnie's first life, she moved home a dozen times. In each new town, her family landed in deeper trouble. Then, without warning, she was snatched by total strangers and taken far away to the other side of the world. Dinnie arrives in Switzerland and becomes a pupil at an international boarding school high in the mountains. Separated from her family, she starts a new life that's strange and frightening...beautiful and full of adventure.
