Fantabulous!!!!!

This is a fantastic book by the award winning author Jacqueline Wilson.
Lola Rose is about a girl called Jayni and her mum wins a scratch card. Not just ten pound but ten thousand pounds. Jayni's father abuses her mother and then starts to abuse Jayni. Then in the dead of night Jayni, her mother and her little brother Kenny run of in the dead of night. This book is sometimes scary but there are happy bits.
Highlights
I liked the entire book. Especially when a family member helps the family to get rid of the dad.
Any weak bits
I have to say that the weak bits are when they always have to go to an aquarium for the little brother.
Age Range
This book is for late primary and young teenagers.
You could finish this book in a week if you put your mind to it
Unputdownable?
When I started to read Lola Rose I couldn't put it down. Come on give it a try!

You dont have to be a teenager to read this!

I bought a Jacqueline Wilson book by chance a few weeks ago, and enjoyed it so much, I decided to invest in some more. I chose carefully, and chose those books I thought might appeal to teenagers and older readers.
Lola Rose didn't disappoint, although I felt real empathy with the main characters in the book, particularly Lola Rose, an [...] trying to hold her family together after they flee their voilent father. It was very intersting to see how mature Lola was, and how social issues DO and CAN affect children, even if parents think children don't see it. I won't tell you what happens at the end, but let's just say the book contains enough to make you want to keep reading it - domestic violence, eating issues, illness...don't get me wrong, this is not a depressing read, just a very interesting one. Well done JW for another fantastic book

For OLDER JW readers (estimated 12 yr+) - FIRST CLASS!
|
|
Expertly read by Helen Lederer, the overall running time for this superb JW package is over 6 hours! 'A new story for older readers (recommended 12 yrs+) - a wonderfully moving tale of family life as it sometimes really is - from multi-award winner Jacqueline Wilson.'
'When life at home suddenly gets really frightening, Jayni, her Mum and her little brother, Kenny, have to pack their bags and escape in the middle of the night. Although they are scared of being caught, travelling to London and staying in a hotel does seem like it might be a big adventure - at first. They even get to choose new names - and so Jayni becomes the glamorous, grown up 'Lola Rose'! But Lola Rose's new life isn't quite as wonderful as her new name. She doesn't likes Mum's new job, or Mum's new boyfriend, and she is not sure about the boys at school either. And when Mum has to go into hospital, Lola is forced to be much more grown up than she really feels.' Excellent price at Amazon!
