Storm
Skinner, Nicola2020
Book
Frances's parents were not prepared for her birth: they had a blanket and an easel and some paint, but not anything useful, like a car or a phone. So it's no wonder Frankie has always had an anger problem. She was born on a beach, in a storm. What Frances was not prepared for was dying in a freak disaster that destroyed her whole town. Waking up 100 years later, Frances finds a whole load of new things to be angry about. And that's before the visitors start turning up, treating her home like it's a tourist attraction. Which it is. Only there are worse people out there than tourists, and they're coming for Frankie. Frankie is about to discover that there are things more important than herself and that anger has its uses. Because when you have a storm inside you, sometimes the only thing to do is let it out.
