Are We All Lemmings & Snowflakes? cover

A trailblazing and painfully honest novel about mental health, friendship and making this crazy world a kinder place, from the author of the bestselling Am I Normal Yet?


Welcome to Camp Reset, a summer camp with a difference. A place offering a shot at "normality" for Olive, a girl on the edge, and for her new friends, who are all dealing with their own battles. But as Olive settles in, she starts to wonder - maybe it's this messed up world that needs fixing, and not them. And so she comes up with a plan. Because together, snowflakes can form avalanches...
