Review:
This jaw dropping book tells you about a girl named Olivia who is 11 years old. Due to her mother hating the brother, sister and her they got moved into foster care and are hoping to find a safe place for them to live.

It has chapters about the past houses she has lived at. The book shares with you her traumatising life.

The main topic in the story is about her 16th home. But will she get thrown out on her own will or will the past come back to haunt her and make sure she gets thrown out.

" I can smell cigarette and alcohol and can hear some laughing at me but there is no one there"

Review:
The book is about a girl named Bean who is always getting in trouble and her friend named Ivy who says if you are kind, generous and pure of heart, animals will follow you home and love you forever. So the two try and be as kind as they can to everyone around them. But the animals don't seem to be coming to them so they come up with another plan for the animals to come.
Excerpt: 
Bean's day is going downhill, and its only nine in the morning. Is it her fault she licked syrup off her plate? Is it her fault Nancy's yarn got used up? Yes. Bean wonders if being good is worth the effort. Ivy says yes, that if you're really good, animals will love you and follow you home. Wow! Ivy and Bean decide they're going to be the best kids in town. They're going to be kind, they're going to be generous and pure of heart and- Wait a second! How did they end up muddy, wet and in trouble?
