A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Anne Fine has been an acknowledged top author in the children's book world since her first book was published in the mid l970s, and has now written more than forty books and won virtually every major award going, including the Carnegie Medal (more than once), the Whitbread Children's Award, the Guardian Children's Fiction Award, the Smarties Prize and others. The Children's Laureate from 2001-2003, Anne is also very funny and young readers love her lack of hypocrisy about the family and her honesty about how people can behave. She lives in the North-East.

'One of the sharpest and most humorous observers of the human condition writing today for the young' School Librarian

'She is translated into 26 languages and has regularly won every major children's literary award in the land, including the Carnegie Medal twice and the Whitbread Children's Novel award twice . . . There are few more influential, or more unfailingly intelligent, authors at work' Scotsman

'A subversively wicked gift for exploring family tensions' Independent

Quatrième de couverture

Who cares if flower earrings are 'Totally Yesterday'?

Bonny doesn't.
Nor does she want to know how to bleach her elbows.
She only wants to make new friends.
But the other girls at CharmSchool are so self-obsessed.
And they'll do anything to win the much-coveted 'Glistering Tiara'...

'Assured and lively... a clarion call against the idea that girls should simply be decorative' Sunday Times

'All of Fine's usual pace and verve' TES
