The Girl Who Wasn’t There

About The Girl Who Wasn’t There

The Girl Who Wasn’t There by bestselling author Jacqueline Wilson invites readers into a captivating, slightly eerie world. Sisters Luna and Aurora find their lives transformed when their dad announces they're moving into a real tower, promising a fairy-tale existence. However, the reality is far from magical: the tower is dilapidated, their dad is jobless, and one room at the very top remains strictly off-limits.

As they settle into their new home, Luna quickly makes a friend at school. Six-year-old Aurora, however, struggles to connect with her classmates, preferring the company of her imaginary friend, Tansy. Aurora's vivid make-believe world begins to cause real problems for the family, as she insists Tansy is real. Luna starts to wonder if there's more to the tower than meets the eye, perhaps even a curse. Can Luna uncover the truth and break the spell that seems to be gripping their new home and her little sister?
