Freya Harte Is Not a Puzzle (Collins Mabh)(Paperback)

Freya Harte's one wish was to fit in... For as long as she could, she tried her best to appear normal. Why was it that simple, ordinary things like introducing herself to her new classmates were so difficult? Why was she constantly getting her timetable mixed up, forgetting her books and getting lost?
