‘I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys looking at the psychological side of relationships’
Friendship isn’t a concept that Frances Bird knows very well; she’s always been alone at school and her home life isn’t happy either, living with her strict grandmother and her grandfather, whose memory is disappearing before their eyes. Frances had lost all hope of her life improving when she is asked to take the new girl under her wing by her teacher.
This girl is the bubbly, posh and always eccentric Alberta Fitzroy-Black, who immediately takes a liking to Frances, nicknaming her Birdy. Much to Frances’s surprise, they form a close bond rapidly. Alberta (Bert) needs Frances’s help to navigate the school as she was previously home-schooled and Frances needs Bert as she is the primary source of happiness in her life. Their friendship is intense and Frances will do whatever it takes to keep it.
