- Book Synopsis
-
Lottie is back for spring term and determined to move past old humiliations, but Kingswood High is still a minefield. A role in the school musical offers the chance to impress her crush, yet the bigger problem is closer to home as her friendships with Molly and Jess begin to wobble.
Katie Kirby keeps the humour broad and accessible, but she is equally good on the panic of trying to hold a friendship group together. Readers who loved the first book will find the same comic voice here, sharpened by more social complication.
Ideal for readers who:
- Adore witty middle-grade diary fiction focused on friendship fallouts and secondary school survival.
- Want to follow Lottie as she navigates complex dynamics with Molly and Jess, awkward crushes and a school musical.
- Recognise the emotional minefield of school life, wobbling friendships and intense public embarrassment.
- Appreciate illustrated comedies where pre-teen panic feels beautifully honest, fast-paced and genuinely funny.
- About The Author
- Katie Kirby is a number one best-selling writer and illustrator who lives by the sea in Hove with her husband, two sons and dog Sasha. She has a degree in Advertising and Marketing and after spending several years working in London media agencies, which basically involved hanging out in fancy restaurants and pretending to know what she was talking about, she had some children and decided to start a blog called 'Hurrah for Gin' about the gross injustice of it all. Many people said her sense of humour was silly and immature so she now writes children's books. Katie likes gin, rabbits, over-thinking things, the smell of launderettes and Monster Munch. She does not like losing at board games or writing about herself in the third person. Katie's relatable, hilarious and accessible LOTTIE BROOKS series for tween readers has been shortlisted for the British Book Awards and Laugh Out Loud Book Awards, and titles from the series frequently appear in the favourites lists from the What Kids Are Reading Reports. The series has now sold over 1,000,000 copies in the UK in just four years.
