I have looked forward to reading this book for two years. In it, there is a girl called Tracy who lives in a childrens home. Tracy has a mother who put Tracy in a childrens home through “no reason of her own.” Tracy likes to imagine that her mother is cool and stylish, likes travelling, lives in a HUGE,modern house and will come back for Tracy one day. Actually her mother is boring and plain. While  Tracy waits for her mother to come she would like to be  fostered. Tracy used to have a best friend called Louise but then a new girl called Justine came to the home and Louise went off with her so she doesn’t have a best friend. Tracy doesn’t have a dad and doesn’t want one. Her favorite name is Camilla and some of her least favorite names are Justine, Louise and Peter.  Her school is called Kinglea Junior school, her teacher is called Miss Brown: she doesn’t like it if the class just call her Miss and her class is 3a. Tracy has written heaps of stories and desperately wants to be a professional writer when she grows up. Her worst enemies are Justine and Louise.

Katy Carr is untidy, tall and gangling and lives with her brothers and sisters planning for the day when she will be ‘Beautiful and Beloved, and aimable as an angel.’ An accidental fall from a swing seems to threaten her hopes for the future, but Katy struggles to overcome her difficulties with pluck, vitality and good humour.

This book is about Brownies. Not the Brownies you can eat, but the Brownies club.

A vixen lies seriously injured in the undergrowth. Another animal approaches. It is her young son, coming to her for warmth and comfort. The cub knows he must help his mother to safety, but it is impossible. The vixen senses danger nearby, and nudges him away. She cares nothing for herself, only for her son’s freedom.

Class 4’s teacher is ill and a substitute never arrives. Time is ticking on and class 4 decide to run the class by themselves. Smart Karen takes over but soon things start to go wrong. Will class 4 keep flying solo or crash?

Three boys: Pat,Sam and Bill are sailing around the ocean. Their boat gets shipwrecked and they are stuck on a tiny island with no food or water. How will they survive?

This book is really good. I rate 9/10. A little girl called Amy goes to her Grandparent’s animal rescue centre. Next door there is a farm. There is a pony there with a cut ear that is bandaged. But the cut needs fresh air, the bandage is dirty and the cut is infected. Can Amy save the little pony before it’s too late?

Quite good book-I rate nine out of ten. A little girl wakes up and is in normal times. Next morning she wakes up and finds she has gone back in time 80 years!

I like this book as much as I like any other chalet school book.
