When a sewage line breaks at the Wodehouse Middle Shool, all of the kids are bused to the neighbouring school, Mackerel Middle School, to attend classes. That is when Colette shows up..........and makes Jamie Kelly's life miserable.
Review
Written in diary format, Jamie Kelly tells her readership of the latest happenings in her life, specifically at school. The book is written in familliar language that pre-teen girls will especially like. The narrative is witty, and the humour is comparable to that Louise Rennison, however, it is geared toward a younger audience.
There are creative illustrations on every page as added entertainment for the reader. I would recommend this book to reluctant readers, as the language is simple, and the humour compels the reader to continue turning the pages.
Age Range: 9-12
