About this deal

And she's lost none of her fire - my favourite scene in the adaptation was when Tracy storms down to the school on the bounce, when she thinks Jess is being bullied.

I was a little bit disappointed that the character who shows up in the final scene of the book wasn't played by the same actor, and I wasn't keen on the replacement casting. It irritated me that Cam and Mary were having a relationship but this was never once directly mentioned, only coyly alluded to. Meet feisty, funny Tracy, follow her adventures and share her hopes for the future in these three beautifully observed, hilarious and touching tales, all told in Tracy's own words.Other cancelled products: If you want to cancel products that are not damaged or incorrectly supplied, then you must inform us of this within seven working days following the date of receipt in accordance with the Distance Selling Regulations or otherwise as soon as possible.

Now a major TV series on CBBC and iPlayer 'An unbelievable talent' - David WalliamsJacqueline Wilson, most-loved author has sold 40 million copies of her books. I'd have said it was definetly less light-hearted and a lot more dramatised and dark in parts than the book, though I guess that is to be expected with TV. Jacqueline Wilson books got me into reading when I was younger so I was more than happy to read this one before the TV series that was on tonight! In the first part, we see Tracy and Jess living in their slightly mouldy council flat situated in a tower block known as "Marlborough Tower" on the Duke Estate. I feel as though she was bearing the older, original readers of Tracy Beaker in mind when writing this and pulled out all the stops to give us a nostalgic experience.

It was brilliant to catch up with Tracy again and i love how the story is told from Tracy's daughters (Jess) viewpoint. We see this as Jess names her imaginary dog "Snapchat" and the difference in the playground talk she experiences at school.

Jacqueline does base her books on events that happen to lots of children and adults such as parents getting divorced. It seemed so important that everyone was nice, and I had forgotten this about Wilson's writing - it kills the realism (arguable as a priority, I know!

Jacqueline is one of the nation’s favourite authors, and her books are loved and cherished by young readers not only in the UK but all over the world. I read the three Tracey Beaker novels as a child and am now in my thirties, reading this book to make myself smile.
