Silence Is Goldfish by Annabel Pitcher
This book made me want to give Tess, the novel's protagonist a huge hug so, so bad.
Tess has just discovered a huge, life altering secret courtesy of her dad's secret blog. The six hundred and seventeen words she reads turn her life upside down and make her question everything. Thus, she becomes silent, to everyone.
She speaks in her mind only to Mr Goldfish, her small torch from the petrol garage that she carries around with her.
Its a great novel to encourage young girls to undoubtedly be themselves and like their body at what size they are and never listen to the voices of the pupils around them.
It was a great read and cleverly and clearly written.
