If you could live your life over again, what would you change?
Things are at crisis point for 14-year-old Alice. Her mum is ruining her life, her dad's getting remarried and she has to wear a hideous bridesmaid's dress, she can't stand her little brother Rory, and Sasha, the most popular girl at school, hates her guts.
Then something very odd happens: Alice falls off a roundabout and finds that she is seven years old again. Reliving the past with her 14-year-old consciousness, she gains a disconcerting new perspective on her family and friendships, and she is forced to confront the truth of her parents' separation and question her former loyalties. Life will never be the same again. Penelope Bush was born and brought up in Nottingham, but dreamed of living in the country. She trained and worked as a tapestry weaver but always knew that one day she would write. She has an MA in Creative Writing from Chichester University. Penny now lives in West Sussex with her husband and son and elderly cat. She hides away in an old caravan to do her writing where the only distraction is the occasional pheasant wandering past. Now and again the family reclaim the caravan and it is towed down the coast to Dorset where many happy hours are spent looking for fossils. ALICE IN TIME is her first book.
