About this book

Zinnia doesn’t remember her dad, but for the past 12 years, her older brother Adam has been a pretty good substitute.

On the last day of term, when she should have been celebrating the beginning of the long summer break, she has a disastrous time at school and returns home to find Adam has gone, disappeared without a word. And just when she thinks things can’t get any worse, a swarm of honey bees decides to take up residence in her hair!

A funny, moving story about loss, love, loyalty, misunderstanding and self-awareness, all featuring a quirky young heroine, a hilarious swarm of bees, a fitness freak and an environmentally conscientious dentist.
