Eva and the Hidden Diary cover

The latest great book from the author of the best-selling ‘Eva’ and ‘Alice & Megan’ series.

Eva Gordon’s great at solving problems, but surely even she can’t fix something that went wrong in the past?

When Eva and Kate find an old diary, written long ago by a girl their own age, they end up determined to right old wrongs!

But they can’t spend all their time living in the past as the present, too, is throwing all sorts of challenges at them …

But when the girls get together they can handle anything!
