If you thought Madeline was bossy, wait until you meet Alice-Miranda!
Delacorte Press for Young Readers sent me a copy of this book for review (thank you). It was published in April so you can get a copy at your local bookstore.
Alice-Miranda is a determined girl who knows what she wants out of life. Right now, it's to go to boarding school and study fascinating subjects and meet all the other girls of the upper echelon. However, when she arrives, while the school is what she expected, there's something missing: there is no school spirit...
Alice-Miranda gets there a day early, so she sets off to meet the staff. She's surprised to find the headmistress unavailable, but she visits the cook and the gardener and other staff. And then she sets about making things better.
This is an amusing story about a seven year old girl who is headstrong and has doting parents. What Alice-Miranda wants, Alice-Miranda gets. Especially when it's to help other people. Her actions are outrageous. She has experience doing things normal children would never have. And, thank goodness, she's kind and understanding.
This is the first book in a new series and, based on how Alice-Miranda handled things in this story, you can be sure she'll have another outlandish adventure in the next book, too.
Why not purchase a copy and enter the world of Alice-Miranda Highton-Smith-Kennigton-Jones? If you've got a problem, she'll fix it!
Happy reading.
