Eva’s Journey
Eva is the girl with everything – great birthday parties,
a luxury home, designer clothes and manicured nails
– until her world is turned upside down. Forced to
move house and school when her dad loses his job,
Eva thinks life is over. But, with the help of some new
friends and the mysterious Madame Margarita, she
finds out that there’s more to life than shopping.

Eva’s Holiday
Eva likes fashion, fun and hanging out with friends, so she
can’t believe she has to spend summer in a cottage in
the countryside with her parents and eight-year-old Joey.
Worse, it looks like she’s going to be stuck with Kate, the
girl who doesn’t care about being cool … it’s Eva’s worst
nightmare! But Eva finds out that there are more important
things than having the right hair or clothes and sometimes
‘weird’ girls can make the best friends.
