Rendition Concering Books Skin Deep: All She Wanted Was a Mummy, But Was She Too Ugly to be Loved?

Rejected by her mother and excluded by her school, Flip is a little girl desperate to be loved.

‘Am I ugly, Mummy?’ are the first words that little Phillipa says to Mike and Casey as she stomps into their lives on a hot August afternoon. She has a Barbie doll in one hand and a pink vanity case in the other and the bemused Watsons can only stare in amazement at this tiny eight year old girl who is being guided into the room by her social worker.

Phillipa, known as Flip has Foetal Alcohol Syndrome and life with her single mother has come to an abrupt end after a fire burned the house down. When Casey meets Flip, the child seems remarkably unfazed by what has happened and the thing that seems to worry her is that Casey might find her ugly.
Casey has come across children with FAS in her previous job in a high school behaviour unit, but is now realising that fostering Flip is going to be full of challenges which will test her and Mike’s skills to the limit.

I have read her books before and have really enjoyed then but found this one took awhile to get the little girls story across. It just felt a little to drawn out but still an ok read in this genre.

Another great read from Casey Watson x

Interesting read I hadnt much knowledge on fas before this book.

Flip was a pretty interesting character. Casey Watson is a bit annoying but this was a good read

This book was incredibly heartwarming. Sweet and affectionate Flip comes to live with Casey after a house fire. She has fetal alcohol syndrome (FASD) and is sure that she's ugly. She attaches to Casey immediately, calling her mummy. Casey thinks it's a part of her FASD- forming shallow attachments with people because she struggles with empathy. It turns out that Casey's mother is an alcoholic who inadvertently started the house fire. More secrets about Flip's difficult home life are revealed as

Another tear-jerking, heartfelt book by Casey Watson. Couldn't put it down!
