My mother chose Clover because she wanted me to have a lucky name. Four-leaved clovers are considered very lucky, I believe.
Clover Moon lives in poverty-stricken Victorian London, and her brilliant imagination is her best escape. Until tragedy plunges her into a world of grief.
Clover soon realises that everything she loved about home is gone. She hears of a place she could run to, but where will she find the courage - and the chance - to break free?
Could leaving her family be what she needs to find a place that really feels like home?
Clover Moon is a brilliant and brave heroine from the wonderful world of Hetty Feather, brought to us by the bestselling Jacqueline Wilson.
Portrays the trials and tribulations of Victorian England vividly and with compassion . . . Highly recommended - The Bookbag
