Description

A life lived on the road and a heart that will always belong there. Rosie's idyllic childhood was spent roaming fields and meadows with her younger brothers and sisters in their family's caravan, free from the trappings of modern life but restricted by cultural expectations. Tragedy struck when Rosie's grandfather was killed in an accident, shattering the happiness of her family and forcing Rosie to take on new responsibilities. As she struggled to care for her siblings and hold the family together, Rosie met Stevie, a traveller boy who promised her a different kind of life. But Stevie's demons were real, and Rosie's journey to freedom had only just begun. This memoir is a powerful exploration of identity, community, and the search for belonging in a world that often seems determined to restrict us.
