If you’ve not heard of Jacqueline Wilson’s brilliant character Tracy Beaker then I urge you to get this book now and introduce her to any girl from 7 upwards. This is Jacqueline’s first Tracy Beaker novel for quite a long time and for my daughter she says it’s as good, possibly even better than the previous Tracy Beaker’s.
Full of happiness and sadness, hilarity and heart-break it’s sure-fire winner.
Jacqueline Wilson wrote her first novel when she was nine years old, and she has been writing ever since. She is now one of Britain’s bestselling and most beloved children’s authors.
