"A brilliant Victorian-era novel featuring Hetty Feather. Jacqueline Wilson is a fabulous storyteller and girls over the age of nine will absolutely love her writing" (Stacia Briggs Norwich Evening News)

"Wilson's latest book, illustrated by Nick Sharratt, is as wise, warm and deliciously readable as ever" (Emma Lee-Potter Daily Express)

"Sapphire Battersea doesn't disappoint. It follows Hetty Feather through a name change a reunion with her mother and a new life of work" (Sunday Express)

"Plucky Sapphire (formerly Hetty) goes out to earn her keep, fuelled by Wilson's class rage and carnivorous sense of yearning" (Kitty Empire Guardian Children's Book website)
