Differences between the film and the book

 * In the book, we never find out whether "Peanut" was a boy or a girl, or what they were named. In the film, it is revealed "Peanut" was another girl, and she was named Rose (Continuing with the flower theme).
 * Additionally, In the book, Bluebell changed Rose to Rosie on the list of baby names pinned to the refrigerator, thinking it nicer for a baby. She also jokingly suggested names like “Money” or “Giftcard” (but didn’t add these to the list) after thinking her themed birthday presents after her name were naff. In the film, it’s Bluebell who adds Rose to the list, thinking it would make nicer themed birthday presents and sounds nice and ordinary (compared to hers and Tiger’s), and it’s Tiger who changes it to Rosie, thinking Rose is old fashioned. This doesn’t stick, however, and Tiger remembers it in the epilogue. It is also Catrin (in the epilogue) who says that roses are a symbol of love, which Tiger and her parents like.
 * In the book, Bluebell gets her ear pierced twice, after Red has hers pierced. In the film, (?) who played Bluebell, already has pierced ears, so this was changed to a cartilage piercing, which Bluebell says her mum wouldn’t allow yet.
