‘I never sleep, the night before my birthday . . . it’s the only day of the year I hear from her . . .’
Dizzy’s mum left when she was small. But every year, on her birthday, something arrives in the post – a present or a card with her mum’s loopy writing on it. Dizzy has kept everything.
This year is different. Nothing comes in the post, but something amazing is about to arrive on Dizzy’s doorstep. Something that will whisk her away – and put Dizzy’s world in a spin.
I LOVE Dizzy. It is my favourite book by Cathy. I wish I lived in England so I could find Cathy’s books more easily.
I bought the book “dizzy” because my friends bought it and it looked interesting. It was better than I thought!once I picked it up, I could’nt put it down! I loved it how Dizzy and Finn fell in love.It was so romantic. I think Cathy Cassidy is an excellent author with a extraordinary imagination! I can’t wait to read all her other books!!
Its the best book i have ever read its amazing. poor mouse
dizzy has been one of the best books i’ve read in a long time!
i love this book!!!!!!!!actually i read it like five times and i’m gona keep on reading it!!!
This book was one of the best books I had read in a very long time. It has made me feel fortunate that I have both parents and they both wanted me.
dizzy is the besy book ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!i read it in 3 hours
Dizzy is about to turn twelve and as usual she is really excited. But unlike most eleven-year-olds, she’s not excited about getting a giant cake, or choosing what to wear, or having all her friends give her presents. Dizzy is waiting for that special something from her mum to come through the letterbox.
Dizzy’s mum walked out on her when she was four to be with another man and travel the world as a hippie. But every year on her birthday, something arrives from her mum in the post. Mostly it’s a postcard or a letter, but sometimes it’s other things, like a hand-made rag doll, or an exotic hat, or some jewellery or a dreamcatcher.
This year, nothing arrives in the post, but instead Dizzy’s mum herself arrives and is about to take Dizzy on the trip of a lifetime…
I would recommend this book to girls ages 9-13.
Cathy Cassidy, I have read many books in my life and only very few of them are what I call well written, and even then only a few make the cut. But with Dizzy, I felt some longing to be her-to step out into her world to live the life Dizzy does.It definitley makes ‘The Cut’ as one of the best books I have ever read!
I really enjoed Dizzy.I read all of your books and I Loved them all it took my 2 hours to read each of them. Once I read one I was out again to buy the next. I really enjoyed them !!!!!!!!!!!!
