Book of the Week - Lucy Bee and Soline by Anne Ingram


Lucy's friends have their career paths sorted, but fifteen-year old Lucy is floundering. When she welcomes French exchange student Soline into her family home, she has no idea their friendship will lead to a visit to France and a discovery that will pave the way to an exciting career she's barely even dreamt of. Soline, wanting a change of scene and adventure, travels to New Zealand. She's just settling in when her sister calls from France with disturbing news - the chateau will have to be sold. With Lucy's help, Soline searches desperately for a way to prevent losing the home her family have lived in for generations.

Teen girls especially will appreciate the idealism, energy and intensity of Lucy and Soline.
