From Onjali Q. Rauf, author of The Boy at the Back of the Class,
comes another incredible story, told with humour and heart.
Touching on the challenges navigated by children caring for loved
ones at home, this story brings into focus their hardships and
worries, alongside the unexpected, invisible sources of kindness
which can change their lives. 'It's funny that I'm named after a
movie star. If I ever became one, I would probably win every award
on the planet, because I have to act every single day of my life.'
10-year-old Audrey has a secret. A secret she's constantly afraid
of social services finding out. So she has fine-tuned her life into
becoming one of the best actresses on the planet. As soon as she
steps out of the front door, the show is on, and all the world
becomes her stage! No-one would ever guess that she is a nurse and
doctor for her mam, the family food shopper (and sometimes
shoplifter), a medicines collector, and even bedtime-reader for her
younger siblings. But when Audrey's mam gets sicker, Audrey becomes
determined to find a way of getting her to the best doctor in the
best hospital in the country so that she can get better and they
won't ever need to be apart and she won't have to worry anymore.
The only problem is, it's a dream that will cost her thousands. As
Audrey sets about trying to make her dream for her family come true
with a plan that involves her precious stamp collection, an
unsuspecting postal system, and a globally renowned philatelist,
someone else on the street embarks on a secret mission of their
own. One that will alter Audrey's life - and that of her family -
forever.
