What is When I Feel Red about?

April has always felt out of step with everyone else. While her classmates obsess over dating, she would rather rescue animals and escape into her own imagination. But Year 8 is becoming harder: lessons are confusing, detention keeps piling up and even her best friend, Ben, seems distant. As problems at home and school build, April must learn to manage her anger, ask for help and decide whether fitting in is worth hiding who she really is.
