A review by alongreader
Bloom by Nicola Skinner
5.0
What a fabulous read this book is. A lovely story showing how important it is to keep green spaces and to let children be children. I sincerely hope the publishers are planning to add a few little black seeds to this book. (That'll make sense once you read it, I promise.)
A brilliant read. Buy this one for everyone you know.
I received a proof copy in exchange for an honest review.
Mum picked me up five minutes later.
'Good day?' she asked.
'Not bad. You?'
'It was ok,' she said. 'I had a meeting with my boss. I had this great idea for a new range of pizzas, with fresher ingredients. I even suggested a few of my own recipes, things I'd been experimenting with at home.'
'And?'
'Oh, you know, the usual response. She'd think about it. Then she told me to go clean a gunked up tube that was clogged with processed cheese.' Mum stared at the pavement.
'Cool, Mum!' I said, squeezing her hand. 'If she's thinking about it, that's a good thing, isn't it?'
She bit her lip, then gave me a grin. 'Must be,' she said. 'You never know. Oh, and guess what? I found someone who can fix the patio. He's coming tomorrow, with a fresh load of concrete.'
It was just what I needed to hear. Perhaps things could finally get back to normal.
