Lost Diary of Sami Star
A wonderfully warm and touching story of friendship, identity and kindness from top-notch teen author Karen McCombie.
Being at home is hard for Hannah. With Mum, Dad and Vix always fighting they've got no time for her or her worries, she might as well be invisible.
But when she finds an abandoned diary in the park containing snippets and photographs of the colourful life of the mysterious Sami Star, Hannah hopes she's found the real friend she always needed. Little does Hannah know Sami needs her too…
