Settle down with Cathy Cassidy for today's Puffin Storytime at 3:30pm!
She'll be chatting about her series The Chocolate Box girls 🍫 and reading an extract from the first book in the series: Cherry Crush 🍒

Cherry Costello's life is about to change forever.

She and Dad are moving to Somerset where a new mum and a bunch of brand-new sisters await. And on Cherry's first day there she meets Shay Fletcher - the kind of boy who should carry a government health warning. But Shay already has a girlfriend, Cherry's new stepsister, Honey. Cherry knows her friendship with Shay is dangerous - it could destroy everything. But that doesn't mean she's going to stay away from him...
