CASSON FAMILY: FOREVER ROSE HC – HILARY MCKAY

It s the Casson Family finale, and Permanent Rose takes centre stage. It s tough being the youngest – Rose is lonely. Her family are always busy doing their own things so Rose comes home to a dark, quiet, empty house every day. Saffy is off with Sarah, Indigo has his paper round and guitar lessons, Eve s in quarantine in the shed, Bill s not much use in London, and who knows where Caddy is since she disappeared with Michael s postcards! The only one around is David and Rose would rather be alone than be with him! At least Rose still has her friends at school: the brilliant Kiran and the nice but boring Molly. But school is no longer a peaceful place where Rose can daydream. Mean Mr Spencer is always shouting about SATs. And now he s cancelled Christmas! But one thing Mr Spencer can t cancel is the Christmas School Trip which means Rose can help Molly with her ONE BIG IDEA …but what could that be? Will it be a very merry Christmas for Class 6 and the Casson family?
