Commentary As Books Permanent Rose (Casson Family #3)
Feisty Rose takes center stage as the highly original Casson family faces a long, hot summer. As usual, things are a bit chaotic. Eldest daughter Caddy is now engaged to darling Michael, and she's not altogether sure she likes it. Saffy and Sarah are on a mission to find Saffy's biological father (while cultivating hearts of stone). Indigo is cautiously beginning a friendship with a reformed bully, who desparately wants to feel like part of the Casson family. Rose, while missing Tom (who none of them have heard from) dreadfully, enters into a life of petty crime, shoplifting small items until her misadventures nearly bring disaster. An accidental trip to London and a visit with Rose's father lead to a startling revelation, but through it all Rose's single-minded determination to find Tom remains as fierce as it is hopeless. Or is it? Hilary McKay has painted the fond mayhem of this delightul family with such humor, warmth, and authenticity that readers will fall in love with them all over again. Once you've visited the Casson household, you may never want to leave.Particularize Books In Favor Of Permanent Rose (Casson Family #3)

This book made me laugh so hard. Typical, colorful and crazy Casson family at it's best here. LOVED the cake baking adventure Saffy and Sarah had...lots of plot surprises in this book though that snuck up on me.Hilary McKay is an absolute master of her craft. I keep wanting to share quotes from the book, but they're not that effective alone. They're just the reflection of a couple hundred pages of simple sentences, each building a link in the chain, until you get to that last simple sentence and put a hand over your mouth in shock and delight. I love everybody here so much. So much.
It is even clearer than in the last book that Rose is McKay's favorite character.
I recently read Permanent Rose. It's a great book! In Permanent Rose by Hillary McKay, Rose, the main character, is spending her summer in England waiting for a friend who has moved to America to call or communicate. Meanwhile, her adopted cousin trys to find out who her birth father is. As the summer wears on, Rose is constantly thinking of her friend and trys as many ways as she can to communicate. This book has a setting in England which is very interesting to me. It's very cool to have the
I would say that Permanent Rose is a sort of continuation of Indigo's star. Although, this time, the story revolves more around "Darling" Rose than before. Once again, the Cassons are up to their usual tricks and Rose is at the center of them all. Personally, I think that Rose is the funniest so it was great to read more about her. The third Casson book is definitely not disappointing!
Oh, gosh, more Casson craziness than I can begin to explain! Rose and Indigo are sad because Tom went back to America and hasnt written or called, Caddy is conflicted about the gorgeous diamond and platinum engagement ring she accepted from Darling Michael, and Saffron is suddenly determined to find out who her biological father is.These characters continue to delight. Read this series if you enjoy character-driven juvenile fiction; Id recommend it to adults as well as children. Start with Saffy
Permanent Rose -- A Fierce FriendMany years ago I read Saffys Angel, the first in the Casson Family series. In a review of that book I said that the Casson family is a family whose friend circle I hope would include me. They are a dysfunctional family, but dysfunctional in a wonderful way. After reading Permanent Rose, I deeply hope that I would be worthy of her personal friendship. Anyone who is lucky enough to pass Roses friendship test will have a fierce friend, indeed.Permanent Rose, by
