About this ebook

Cookie is plain and shy, not the confident, popular girl her father wanted when he named her Beauty Cookson. Her mother helps her cook up a clever scheme to change her image--but, as usual, Dad doesn't approve, and this time his anger reaches frightening new heights. Will Cookie find the strength to stand up for herself? Honest and emotionally resonant, COOKIE faces tough issues with the unflinching directness and unflagging tenderness that make Jacqueline Wilson one of today's most admired-and popular-authors for young people.

    A brilliant book

    A nice little story for younger readers although the way Cookie talked to the TV presenter and his rabbit was really annoying and spoilt an otherwise good book.

    More of the ever-enjoyable same from Jacqueline Wilson. As in so many of her recent books, she lapses into metaness (this time it's A Little Princess, and a TV show with a white rabbit), and her teenage-misery-lit is starting to feel a little repetitive. But it's a good read.

    4/5
    The reason Jacqueline Wilson is so great is that she writes about girls who have real-life problems, in a way that is positive and humorous. In this case, Beauty Cookson has no friends, no self-confidence, and a Dad who is very controlling and flies into a terrible rage at the slightest thing, belittling Beauty and her Mum at every turn and completely unable to understand their point of view at all. You know it'll all turn out more or less OK in the end, the only question is how - and whether Beauty will ever get a rabbit like Lily... :)
