Editorial Review: Synopsis: Pearl and Jodie are sisters. Pearl is the quiet, cautious, studious younger sister. Jodie is bold and brash and bad - but Pearl adores her anyway. When their parents get new jobs as the cook and caretaker at a fusty old boarding school, the girls have to move there and spend their summer holidays in the school with just a few children and staff for company. And when they arrive, things start to change. Jodie has always been the leader - but now it's Pearl who's making new friends like the amazingly tall, badger-watching Harley and Mrs Wilberforce, the wife of the Head who's confined to a wheelchair after an accident but introduces Pearl to wonderful new books.Jodie just seems to be getting into more and more trouble - arguing with Mum, scaring the little children, flirting with the gardener...When term begins, their strange summer is over. But things keep on changing. Jodie really doesn't fit in with the posh teenagers at the school. But Pearl is doing well in lessons and has even more friends. Maybe she doesn't need Jodie as much as she used to. But Jodie needs her.And when the school celebrations of Firework Night come around and a tragic event occurs, Pearl realises quite how much she does need her big sister... Average Rating:

Buy this Book!My Sister Jodie is a fantastic book. It is a book that once you pick up you can't put down. I love it! I would recommend it to people who like sudden surprises in books; or just love reading and Jacqueline Wilson. It has an unusual ending that is sudden. I'd probably recommend it for readers aged 10 and up. Defnitley buy this book. It's really interesting! Rating:  - Surprisingly DarkI am absolutely convinced that our Jackie's books are becoming steadily more dreary. From the miserable fallout caused by a forbidden (and worryingly twisted) relationship in Love Lessons, to the class-wars waged by the Hannah Montana/Bratz generation in Candyfloss, to the bittersweet ambiguity of Kiss, Wilson's books are revealing an increasingly tense childhood landscape. Children are no longer living in fear of the 'traditional' problems Wilson has written about so provocatively in the likes of ...

Last night she was traumatised after reading the horrific ending. I can't understand why a childrens book needs to have such graphic death at the end and a horrible discription of her sister looking at the body. This review has one star because it isn't possible to give none. Rating: - Too good a book to miss.This book was exiting, hilarious and sad.You start to feel as if you know the characters better than your best friends.I read this book in one day. As soon as I started this book, I didn't put down. Don't miss out on reading this book, it's excellent!!! by A age 11 |
