Shortlisted for the Costa Children's Book Award. A remarkable tale
of confusion and betrayal - and a very special girl called Sophie.
'Some stories are hard to tell. Even to your very best friend. And
some words are hard to get out of your mouth. Because they spell
out secrets that are too huge to be spoken out loud. But if you
bottle them up, you might burst. So here's my story. Told the only
way I dare tell it.' Sophie Nieuwenleven is sort of English and
sort of Belgian. Sophie and her family came to live in Belgium when
she was only four or five years old, but she's fourteen now and has
never been quite sure why they left England in the first place.
Then, one day, Sophie makes a startling discovery. Finally Sophie
can unlock the mystery of who she really is. This is a story about
identity and confusion - and feeling so utterly freaked out that
you just can't put it into words. But it's also about hope. And the
belief that, somehow, everything will work out OK. SOPHIE SOMEONE
is a tale of well-intentioned but stupid parenting, shock,
acceptance and, ultimately, forgiveness, written in a brave,
memorable and unique language all of its own.
