Wed Wabbit by Lissa Evans
5.0
Ever since Fidge's father had died, she had not really been the same. She helped out around the house more than she used to but something that settling in her which needed tackling. Her little sister, Minnie, was becoming annoying and there was just something about her relationship with her mum that was distancing. Worse, Fidge constantly had to read the same book about the painfully annyoing Wimbleys to her sister every night and make do with her sister's favourite toy watching her all the time: Wed Wabbit.
So when two fateful accident happens which ultimately throw Fidge into an alternate world crafted by her younger sister's imaginings, she must confront her inner demons and find her route back to who she used to be.
Funny and wise, Wed Wabbit exceeded my expectations. There is an essence of Henson's Labyrinth in here but with a different cast - one who externalises this struggle that Fidge is going through in order to try to understand her place in a family with no dad. So very well done.
