Across these five novels, she turns her attention to five different girls, each facing a challenge that feels real. In Shine, twelve-year-old Tiff must confront the truth about her mother, Carla, and is sent to live with a family she has never met on the island of Sark. Glitter follows Liberty Parfitt, a wealthy girl whose comfortable world crumbles when her father loses his job, forcing her to decide what matters more than money. A Million Angels introduces Jemima, whose father is deployed to Afghanistan just as her mother is about to have a new baby, leaving Jemima to quietly carry worries no one notices. A Sea of Stars brings together Maya, who lives a relaxed seaside life in Cornwall, and another girl from a very different background, in a story about how friendship bridges even the widest gaps. The Invisible Girl follows Gabriella Midwinter, who once had a home and a family, and who runs away in search of her brother, Beckett, after everything she knew falls apart. Each book stands on its own, but together they showcase Kate Maryon's gift for writing girls who feel like real friends: funny, flawed, brave, and easy to root for. Told in warm, accessible prose, these stories tackle family upheaval, financial hardship, and running away, without losing their sense of hope, making this a rewarding read for confident tweens and reluctant readers alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete five-book paperback set from author Kate Maryon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach story stands alone, so readers can start with any title\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplores family change, friendship, and resilience with warmth and humor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccessible, fast-paced writing ideal for readers ages 9-14\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand-new condition, ready to gift or shelve in a classroom library\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA great pick for fans of Cathy Cassidy and Jacqueline Wilson\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShine — Tiff must leave her mother, Carla, once the truth comes out, and adjust to a new life with strangers on the island of Sark.\u003cbr\u003eGlitter — Wealthy Liberty Parfitt rethinks what matters when her father's job disappears and money can no longer smooth over the cracks at home.\u003cbr\u003eA Million Angels — With her father deployed to Afghanistan and a new baby coming, Jemima quietly sends a million guardian angels each night to keep her family safe.\u003cbr\u003eThe Invisible Girl — Gabriella Midwinter, who once had a happy home, runs away to search for her brother, Beckett.\u003cbr\u003eA Sea of Stars — Maya's easygoing seaside life in Cornwall collides with another girl's very different world in a story about friendship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKate Maryon is a British author who writes contemporary fiction for young readers, drawing on her years as a homeopath and complementary therapist working with many young people.
