Books with title Gingerbread Baby

When Cyd gets home to her family for the summer holidays she is in a very 'teenage' state of mind! Boyfriend troubles, parent troubles, little brother troubles. When she meets the lovely 'Shrimp' her mother finally decides she has had enough of her troublesome teenage daughter and sends her to holiday with her 'real' father in New York. The break does Cyd a lot of good - she meets a brother and a sister she didn't know she had, she finds a little romance and she comes to terms with some troubles of a different and deeper sort which have been hidden for some time. Cyd Charise has a secret buried and it is only through getting to know herself better is she finally able to tell those nearest to her what has really gone on in her life. Not for a long time has such a lovely and quirky girl been brought to life in a book. Her passion for life, her humour and her irrepressible energy will make this book required reading for every teenager.

The puppy they call Ginger is back. This time, she tells her story about her life and her family. How she grew from a puppy to a dog. Ginger talks about becoming potty trained, and the loss of her eye. Just because you look and do things a little differently doesn't mean you should be treated a certain way. Her family still loves her, just the way she is, and that will never change.
