Trouble at the Crab Shack Café: Ellie Booton's Journal, No. 1

Ellie is quirky, funny and sometimes a bit of a worrier. She’s also a thinker – and sometimes this gets her into a bit of bother.
Ellie is new in town. It’s not much fun to have to start over at any age, and making new friends is bit of a challenge, especially when you have to contend with boys like Gilby Flynn. When Ellie meets Elsie things start to look up and the Crab Shack Café looks like it will be a haven, until things start to go horribly wrong. The weather is AWFUL - the wind is howling, seagulls are screeching and there’s TROUBLE in the air. And who is the boy in the blue jacket? There’s a mystery to solve, that’s for sure.
Oh, and there’s a school project for the summer holiday – it's called 'Helping Hands' and you have to show you've made the WORLD a BETTER PLACE. Now that’s not much to ask, is it?

A girl like Ellie doesn’t panic. At least not in public!

A heart warming, funny story, told by Ellie, of life at its trickiest.
