Charlie Franks is A-OK
When you fall off your horse, it's hard to get back on.
But with everything on the line, Charlie's going to have to be brave.
Unlike her drama-queen twin sister, Charlie Franks is always fine. At least she is until she has to start a new school, finds out she can't ride her new horse, and gets told that her Mum has something totally weird wrong with her.
Charlie's not A-OK. Not at all.
And she can't see how things are ever going to get better.
________________________________________________________________________________
Take a pair of zany twins, add a horse or two and some humorously embarrassing moments and you've got Coco and Charlie's life on the farm.
If you're a brave-hearted girl who loves family, friends, horses, adventure and the challenge of finding what you're good at, this is the book for you.

Reader Reviews
"Cute and endearing. I loved watching her grow throughout the story and being able to hear her voice. There are definitely lessons about friendships and family and what it means to achieve your dreams."
"Every Novel is Wonderful. No matter your age, pick up anything written by Cecily Anne Paterson and you won't be disappointed. She knows how to create relevant and relatable characters that you fall in love with and root for. She also writes with integrity-- both in quality and in content. I hope she keeps on writing."
"The perfect book for anyone who likes drama and happy endings."
"LOVE THESE BOOKS. I TRULY LOVE ALL THE CHARACTERS IN THESE TWO BOOKS. THEY ARE SO GOOD,I CAN'T PICK A FAVORITE ONE.I HOPE THIS ISN'T THE END OF THIS SERIES, I COULD READ MORE..."
"Cute. This is a very cute YA book. The characters are well written. I would read more books by this author."
"Another gem of wholesome teenage fiction. Of the Cecily Anne Paterson books I have read so far, Charlie is the character I have most identified with. Most of my life I have been A-Ok too - an insightful journey into how to cope when all is NOT A-OK is so helpful for young (and older!) minds to think about. Cecily has a real gift for understanding teenage relationships, in all their complicated, and frustrating beauty."
