Candyfloss has to be one of my favourite books I've read! Floss' mum and dad split up  a long time ago, she lives with her mum on week-days and her dad at the week-end.  It starts off happy and exciting for Floss, because it's her birthday.  She gets a t-shirt with a koala in the middle, a new pair of trainers and a toy kangaroo with a baby in her pouch.  Then she finds out what should have been good news but to Floss  it was bad. Steve got a promotion at work to go and work in Sydney and he accepted it so the whole family had to move there in one month.  

She gets a second birthday at her dad's cafe. The three regular customers are there;  Billy the chip, Old Ron and Miss Davis.  For the rest of that day Floss waited for the chance to tell her dad she couldn't stay seeing him at the week-ends but she wasn't willing to spoil his effort into her party and his fun either. Floss has to decide between her mum or her dad which family will she choose in this impossible decision...
