Product Overview

Denim Davies wishes he could flip his life, just like the vintage items he sells online. He and his dad have spent a year moving from town to town and Denim feels like he’s drifting through life without an anchor.

When they arrive in the small town of Driftwood Heights, Denim doesn’t see the point of getting close to anyone when they’re just going to move again. Then he befriends Mina and his new home starts to look a little brighter. But a vintage find goes horribly wrong and Denim has a tough decision to make—one that could ruin his friendship forever.

    A beautifully crafted tale

    Posted by Frances Prentice on 14th Oct 2025

    I had the privilege or betareading this book last year, as one of the Rhiza Shorts authors. It was my pleasure to reread it in its published form today. I have been looking forward to its release and the opportunity to share it with my preteen son. Flip is a beautifully crafted, gentle tale of a kid called Denim who has been through tough times - he lost his mother to cancer and then he and his Dad lost their home. However, Denim is not resentful of his circumstances, he is trying to make the best of them. He's the kind of kid who deflects bullies, befriends unusual kids and gives people a second chance. He struggles with a moral dilemma, because he's a kid with both a heart and a conscience. This is a book that will sit in your heart long after you close the covers. It is beautifully and simply written, suitable for those who find reading challenging, but can also be appreciated by the most competant reader.
