Dolphin and Star live with their bright, beautiful mum called Marigold. She has flaming red hair and is covered from head to toe in tattoos. One the one hand, Dolphin thinks that Marigold is the most magical mum in the world. On the other hand, she also wishes that Marigold would look after her and Star better.

Narrated by Dolphin, this is a journey of two children seeking comfort, family and safety. First published in 1999, Jacqueline Wilson was ahead of her time in writing so freely and openly about mental health.
