Review: What Happened To Polly by Jennifer Hanning

What Happened To Polly by Jennifer Hanning

[Image: 51Qow3-sApL._SY90_.jpg]

One day 10 year old Carmel loses her 3 year old sister Polly at a fair. This is the story of how Carmel copes with the guilt. But this story is so much more. It is a heart-tugger, but not over the top.

I did find bits painful to read as it must be so, so hard not knowing what happened. For all the sadness in it, it is not a horrid story. It is very well written and I will say un-put-downable as I read most of it on one wet Sunday.

After reading the first few chapters, I so wanted to go straight to the end to see if it was a happy ending as I didn't know if I could bear it if it wasn't. I resisted and was so glad I did.

This is definitely a book I would recommend to everyone. I loved it.

I realise you're talking to readers here, Joo, but I want to give you a warm-hearted "thank you", for this and the wonderful 5-star reviews you've posted elsewhere. I'll try and dig up a copy of my family tree so that people won't think we're related Big Grin
