In Shine, twelve-year-old Tiff adores her glamorous mum Carla, but slowly realises the shiny treasures her mum brings home aren't bought — they're stolen, and Tiff must decide what loyalty really means. Glitter follows Liberty Parfitt, who dreams of a life built around music, much to the frustration of her wealthy, workaholic dad who wants her focused on exams instead. A Million Angels centres on Jemima, whose soldier dad is deployed to Afghanistan just as her mum prepares for a new baby and her gran arrives carrying her own wartime memories. Invisible Girl tells the story of Gabriella Midwinter, who once had a home and a normal life, and must now find the courage to be seen again after everything is taken from her. Finally, A Sea of Stars brings together Maya, who lives a cosy life by the sea in Cornwall with her hippy parents, and a second girl from a very different world, in a tender tale of friendship crossing social divides. Across all five books, Kate Maryon writes with warmth and sensitivity about family, belonging, courage and true friendship, without shying away from real-world themes.. Five complete, emotionally rich novels in one great-value paperback set. Perfect for fans of Jacqueline Wilson and Cathy Cassidy. Tackles real themes — f
