Jellybean
Author(s): Tessa Duder
Jellybean tells the story of a lonely girl, Geraldine, nicknamed Jellybean, whose unconventional single mother is uncomfortably different from all her schoolmates' mothers - a professional musician who plays in the orchestra and a jazz band. So when a stranger comes into their life and Jellybean finds that he is someone from her mother's past, she begins to wonder if he is her mysteriously absent father.
This is a new edition of one of Tessa Duder's best loved children's novels, first published 1985.
