Synopsis
Hannah and Joey have been best friends for ever. Joey's parents love rescuing things and making them beautiful - their house is full of things made from driftwood, old glass and shells from the beach. Which is why the scraggy kittens the girls find in a bin at school end up living there. And when Paul moves in as Joey's foster brother, everyone thinks that maybe he needs rescuing too. But nobody knows quite how badly. At first, it's great - Hannah's brother befriends Paul, and the four of them hang out together. But then things start to go wrong. Paul is being bullied. Subtly at first - but quickly it gets dangerous. People aren't like driftwood or abandoned kittens and Hannah doesn't know how to rescue him. Paul doesn't want to be rescued - but with help, he can find a way to save himself.

FAB
I am ten and Driftwood is the first book i have read by cathy cassidy and it definitely won't be the last.
I found this book thrilling ,original and most of all it made me realize that some people are very different than others.
I would recommend this book to adventurous readers and anyone who doesn't mind a tear full story.

You can smell the salty air! xx
I'm lucky enough to live by the sea and Cathy captured all the best bits about it brilliantly. She also did a great job of explaining bullying and the fact that it can be overcome, friends are important, adults can do the right thing (sometimes!) and happiness can win out XXX
Thanks again for another brilliant book. :c}
