Candyfloss is about a little girl name Flora a.k.a Floss. Her parents are divorced and her mother lives with her boyfriend Steve, Floss's baby brother Tiger, and Floss herself. Steve, Floss's mom, and Tiger want to go to Australia, but Floss doesn't. Floss goes and lives with her dad {who is poor} for the 6 months the other 3 are in Australia. Floss's dad works at a café, but can't pay the money needed. They live at the café, so that's a big problem. They get kicked out, and have to find a way to survive. Floss has a plane ticket to Sydney, Australia, but she can't bear to leave her dad. Floss's dad's chip butties are really tasty and he still sells them in their chip van. One day, while Floss is still in the van, it bursts into flames. Her dad rescues her in the nick of time. Meanwhile, at school, Floss's best friend, Rhiannon turns into Floss's worst enemy. Fortunately, a girl, Susan, sticks up for Floss, and helps protect her from Rhiannon. I like Floss and feel sorry for her. I am grateful to Susan and I have my doubts about Rhiannon. If you like books that area little bit sad, you would probably enjoy this book.

That is a really good review. You tell people what it is about without giving away the ending.
Kudos on a job well done!
Agreed! Great job, BookWorm! =)
Unfortunately, I don't like sad books very much so I probably couldn't read this one without crying... but it sounds fantastic and full of all kinds of interesting things - including the names!
Thanks for doing the review. I'll be watching for more! =)
Thank you all for your supportive comments!

To Morgana & Jynx. Thank you for reading my reviews. I appreciate your compliments and thoughts!
Anytime! Thanks for sharing with us! =)
Good reviews! Do you ever review books you didn't like.
You must have terrific parents to take you to NYC and do all the things you did while you were there.
Enjoy reading your reviews.
Keep writing.
To birdie. So far I haven't reported on a book I don't like, and it is true, my parents are really nice! :)
