Summer’s Dream

SUMMER is quiet, confident, pretty, popular and VERY serious about dance . . .

Summer has always dreamed of dancing, and when a place at ballet school comes up, she wants it so badly it hurts.

Middle school ends and the holidays begin, but unlike her sisters, Summer has no time for lazy days and sunny beach parties. The audition becomes her obsession, and things start spiralling out of control . . .

The more Summer tries to find perfection, the more lost she becomes. Will she realise – with the help of the boy who wants more than friendship – that dreams come in all shapes and sizes?

  4. I absolutly love this book. I can really relate to Summer’s situation and I’m sure lots of other girls my age can too. I can’t wait for Coco Caramel and Sweet Honey!

  8. Wow, I really enjoyed this book:-) The same thing happens with every Cathy Cassidy book I read… I enjoy it so much that I read and read and read and read until the whole world starts spinning and I get so lost in the story, then BAM I finish it and get all depressed. But hey, I always look forward to the next book Cathy will bring out!

    I liked Summer’s Dream because it shows how dangerous harming yourself to look ‘pretty’ is. Many girls starve themselves to look slimmer and end up getting seriously ill, and this book is something that they can relate to.

    As Cathy says, life is sweet…

  10. Summer’s Dream was awesome I loved it because it told you how she wanted to achieve her dream but she couldn’t because she was having a eating disorder. It was really great book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
