'I cannot tell you how much I loved #galaxygirl. It really is the most incredible book... The writing style is wonderful... I lost count of the number of times it had me laughing.' Jenni, Odd Socks and Lollipops'Esme Tickle's story might be incredible, but her problems will be relatable to many of the young people who read this hugely enjoyable book.' Karen, Hair Past a FreckleYou hate school. Your family is beyond annoying. Your only friend comes from another planet, and she's about to leave. What's a girl to do?Fed up with life on Earth, Esme stows away on the spaceship taking Stella back to Kratos. So begins her adventure into a world beyond the stars. A world of strange creatures, thrilling journeys, heroic rescues and instant fame.Oh, and school. Lots of school.Along the way she discovers that friends may be greener on the other side, but they still can't be trusted. Millions and billions of light years away from home, Esme sets in motion a plan to escape. Unfortunately for her, they aren't about to let their prize exhibit leave anytime soon...Esme tells her story through a series of blog posts, written in order to help her mum 'come to terms' with her departure. Very funny and, at times, deeply touching, you won't be able to read this heartwarming book without a renewed appreciation for your own family.'Esme is hilarious and her voice through the novel is unique and loveable. She reminds me of a more modern Adrian Mole if he were to go into space.' Laura, Novel Kicks'I felt there were aspects that reminded me of Roald Dahl... There are tentative steps into global warming and saving animals from extinction - I thought these had been incorporated into the story well.' Yvonne, Me and My Books'The alien world which Esme is thrown into is so entertaining.' Asha, A Cat, a Book and a Cup of Tea'This book, although aimed at the younger reader, is one that I can highly recommend everyone reads at some point in their lives - adult or child. It really is the sort of book to curl up with on the sofa...' Mixing Reality With Fiction Book Blog'The short chapters and chatty tone made this an interesting and engaging book.' Christina, Chrikaru Reads'... a story with a strong PSHE thread that could be used by teachers to stimulate discussions on various aspects covered, but I suspect it is just a story that students will enjoy escaping into and forget turning it into something to be analysed more deeply.' Elaine, Splashes Into Books

This American classic has touched hearts and minds since its first publication over 50 years ago. This is the coming of age story of Francie, a girl in the slums of turn-of-the-century Brooklyn. Francie grows up with a sweet, tragic father, a severely realistic mother and a favored younger brother. She learns early the meaning of hunger and the value of a penny. She faces the disappointments life brings, including not being allowed the luxury of a high school diploma. With poignant honesty and humor, the book cuts to the heart of family life and the American dream. Considered one of the outstanding books of the century, this is truly a story that young and old, male and female can treasure forever. "This book cuts true and deep into the human soul." (USA Today)
