About the Book

The one mistake that changed two families forever. Kim Braddock and Fizzy Duvall have never met, yet their lives are inextricably linked. When the girls discover that they have been switched at birth, the revelation sends a shock-wave through both families. When their identities are overturned, Kim and Fizzy form a bond that changes them both as two families struggle with the truth. But as conflict deepens, is their connection strong enough to survive?

About the Author :
Sue Hampton is proud to be an ambassador for Alopecia UK. She's also an ex-teacher who was inspired to write by the stories of Michael Morpurgo, because she witnessed their emotional power over young readers. Now a full-time author, Sue visits schools of all kinds and works with young people of all ages. Many of her passions can be detected in her novels, which are all different, (some historical, one futuristic, one magical and funny) but have in common themes like love, courage, freedom and our right to be different. Sue herself looks a little different from most women because she has alopecia, having lost all her hair in 1981. As a result of a feature in The Big Issue, Sue has met several young people who have lost their hair and done an interview for a girls' magazine in Australia.

Review :
"Instantly likeable and believable characters caught up in an impossible situation. With Thinner Than Water, Sue Hampton brings warmth and humour to a potentially devastating situation. A lovely read." Dawn Finch. "Thinner Than Water is an enjoyable and fascinating read. The story line at the beginning involving the accident at birth is made more intriguing because of the parents being a mixed race relationship and from different class systems. The fact that one set of parents had such strong religious feelings really resonated with my own upbringing. This is a fantastic template for an onscreen drama." Beverley Knight "Contemporary, insightful, humorous and touching, Sue Hampton has written an authentic picture of what it's like to be mixed-race London teenagers on opposite sides of the social tracks." Christine O'Brien, Golden Egg Academy. "I absolutely loved this book. Frankly I think it is one of the author's best . Her characterisation is first class and I have never identified with such a diverse set of characters before. This is an exciting and completely original story for young people, told with the empathy, humour and realism that I have come to expect from Sue Hampton." Jo Bowers, librarian.
