A book about making you're own Pride wherever you are.
Bea and her sister Riley have good memories of PRIDE, it was the last time as a whole family before their dad died. Now they are having to move to a small village whilst their mum saves up money to be able to afford life in London as a single parent and they will miss this year's PRIDE.
Bea and Riley are obviously upset about this, but soon find friends who help them fit in. There is just one Thorn in their side and that's grumpy old Rita.
This was a good read, I liked Bea as a character and how the people in the small community helped her. A book to put a smile on your face.
