Your first step into the wonderful world of Jacqueline Wilson! Guess what? Life isn’t easy. Perhaps you’re being bullied, like Daisy, who has a disabled sister she tries her best to stick up for. Or perhaps your mum has fallen in love and you have to move in with a whole new family, like poor Lizzie Zipmouth. (She’s so fed up she won’t even talk.) But don’t panic! Whatever’s wrong, Jacky makes it all right again in her wise, witty and addictive stories. Living through tough times is hard – but reading about them is fun!
