What is Clarice Bean, Don't Look Now about?

Clarice Bean has started writing down all her worries, from infinity to change. But nothing could prepare her for the biggest worry of all: her best friend is moving away. Suddenly, even the much-anticipated Ruby Redfort film premiere cannot cheer her up. As Clarice tries to cope with an unwelcome change, she discovers that friendship can appear in unexpected places. With her usual imagination, humour and honesty, Clarice faces her fears and learns that life does not always turn out as planned.
