Book Description
Benjamin knew he wasn’t settling in at his new school: a new area, new friends, and new everything. He was looking for something new, exciting, and different. He thought he knew what he wanted, what he had, and what to expect. Would it stay like that?
He’d get used to it, he thought. I’m only 11; there’s plenty of time to adapt.
He had experienced a couple of strange occurrences over the last couple of weeks, both at home and at school.
He had school holidays to look forward to; it was the first time in the new setting. He was bound to make friends, with plenty of adventures ahead in the new surroundings. A few weeks at his new school felt repetitive and tiring but just manageable.
His thoughts wandered to the summer holidays and what his plans were and to years ago when he visited his grandma and things happened there that never made sense at the time. Lovely holidays.
Of course, his birthday came first. That was a really exciting time for him.
Then, out of the blue, Benjamin’s mother arranged for him to visit his favourite grandma, a favourite place of all sorts. Could this be the place for him? Somewhere where he was in his element, where he could be himself?
What could this offer Benjamin? He had been on his own many times… such great times. Was there another exciting time waiting for him? What was the attraction for Benjamin?
