À propos de la quatrième de couverture

April Showers.

That's my nickname now. It's better than April Fool.

It's much, much better than Dustbin Baby.

April Showers because she cries so much. April Fool because her birthday is on 1st April. And Dustbin Baby - well, that's how April started out in life - unceremoniously abandoned in a rubbish bin. Now she's turned 14, April's determined to find out the truth about her history. Looking back, she remembers someone she called 'Mummy' - but there were also various other women known as 'Mum', and of course, there's Marion. If only she could remember her original, birth mother - or, maybe, she could even find her...

It's not going to be easy but can April forget the old labels and discover who she really is?

Another unforgettable story for older readers from award-winning and bestselling author, Jacqueline Wilson.
