Opis

Inspired by Enid Blyton's bestselling school series The Naughtiest Girl - this is the diary of the naughtiest pupil there's ever been. Elizabeth Allen is sent to boarding school armed with nothing but a faux ostrich skin diary for entertainment. She will miss her home comforts, especially her pony Ross (the only boy she has ever truly loved) and comes up with a cunning plan; she will be the naughtiest she has ever been so that she is sent home.But then Elizabeth discovers a love for music and makes her first ever friend ... perhaps life at "Frytleafe" might not be as bad as she thought.Between 1940 and 1952, Enid Blyton wrote four novels about Naughtiest Girl, Elizabeth Allen. Books 5-10 are authorised sequels of the series written by Anne Digby in 1999 and The Diary of the Naughtiest Girl is written by Jeanne Willis and illustrated by Alex T. Smith.

Recenzje

Top marks must go to The Diary of the Naughtiest Girl, an imaginative reworking of Enid Blyton's Forties classic The Naughtiest Girl in the School. The spoilt Elizabeth turns out to be a witty and eagle-eyed diarist, capable of some gentle self-parody The Daily Telegraph 20161126
