Moonpenny Island

The uplifting story of Lee, a teenage girl manoeuvring her way though a challenging adolescence created by an alcoholic parent: no money, no food, no attention and no affection. Lee has more on her plate than any 15-year-old should have to deal with. Her mother is a hopeless drunk who can only communicate with her daughter through brain-teasing acronyms. Meanwhile Lee communicates with her absent father through postcards which are never sent. Lee's only brother was killed in a car accident - her mother was the driver. If it wasn't for her neighbour Evie, her surrogate nanna, Lee is not sure she could cope. And then there is Gunna, gorgeous Gunna, her secret crush. Lee struggles to keep up the appearances of some sort of normal life. But there is something in Lee's character that dares her to believe that one day, something will be different.
