Wilson deserves her popularity - even the most resistant page-turner would find this difficult to put down

The trick of writing as a child is not easy to pull off, but Wilson does it triumphantly

Her latest vivid, superbly observed story of real life

A touching tale . . . Written in a first-person voice of disarming honesty, the book rings true through all its many layers

Jacqueline Wilson's clever interweaving of the modern and Victorian story lines makes this book especially satisfying. Nick Sharratt's delightful line drawings help to make the text accessible to a very wide range of readers, who will find this first rate novel both intuitive and humorous

Wilson reveals her ability to elicit tears as well as laughter

Written in a first-person voice of disarming honesty, the book rings true through all of its many layers

A good read for 11-year-olds who want to know their counterparts a century ago were truly human

A most enjoyable book, full of life, warmth and humour

Hi! I'm Charlie (DON'T call me Charlotte - ever!). History is boring, right? Wrong! The Victorians weren't all deadly dull and drippy. Lottie certainly isn't. She's eleven - like me - but she's left school and has a job as a nursery maid. Her life is really hard, just work work work, but I bet she'd know what to do about my mum's awful boyfriend and his wimpy little son. I bet she wouldn't mess it all up like I do . . .

A hilarious, witty and perceptive tale of two girls from very different times but experiencing very similar problems, from award-winning author Jacqueline Wilson.
