A poignant story about dealing with grief through the magic of
reading and friendship. Calypso's mum died a few years ago and her
emotionally incompetent Dad can't, or won't, talk about Mum at all.
Instead he throws himself into writing his book A History of the
Lemon. Meanwhile the house is dusty, there's never any food in the
fridge, and Calypso retreats into her own world of books and
fiction. When a new girl, Mae, arrives at school, the girls' shared
love of reading and writing stories draws them together. Mae's
friendship and her lively and chaotic home - where people argue and
hug each other - make Calypso feel more normal than she has for a
long time. But when Calypso finally plucks up the courage to invite
Mae over to her own house, the girls discover the truth about her
dad and his magnum opus - and Calypso's happiness starts to
unravel. 'A story of great warmth and emotional wisdom' LINDA
