The best thing about this book is that it is not just Beauty that grows as a character - her mother grows too. I feel that this is something of a rarity in children's literature and, as such, it was one of my favourite parts of the novel. Wilson's next book, My Secret Diary, is about her own life as a teenager and is out next March. It will not be age-banded, Wilson said. I am glad that the ending was more satisfying this time, though it was still open-ended (in a good way). Hello Yellow - 80 Books to Help Children Nurture Good Mental Health and Support With Anxiety and Wellbeing -Random House said in a statement that it had been in "close discussion" with Wilson about age guidance. "Jacqueline can see the arguments both for and against printed age guidance on books but does retain some reservations about the subject," the publisher added. "She has agreed for age guidance to be put on the cover of Cookie but RHCB will maintain the discussion with her and her agent over the matter and will review the situation on a book by book basis." Beauty Cookson: Main character; though timid little girl, she has a sweet personality and adores rabbits and the kids show called "Rabbit Hutch" starring Sam and his rabbit Lily. Double Act won the prestigious Smarties Medal and the Children’s Book Award as well as being highly commended for the Carnegie Medal. The Story of Tracy Beaker won the 2002 Blue Peter People’s Choice Award. Anyway. I couldn't put it down! I read as I was cooking, and my daughter ended up going to bed an hour late because I just had to finish the book! What a great story - I mean, I knew it all already - the horrible bullying schoolmates, not a happy home, but then escape and new friends and everything ends well. And yet... and yet... it's the characters that make the story, isn't it? Beauty with her gentle nature, and her mother - essentially that stupid "babe" that people laugh at usually - but a wonderful warm mother, her father, another deliciously evil villain character complicated by the fact that he is her father, and he does love her, albeit in his twisted way. And the others - snotty rich kids, Mike the painter and the kids in the new school. And Sam and Lily. Alsie wrote: "Weird theres some by different authors in here. It's meant to be just Jacqueline wilson! Just because it's got the same illustrator, doesnt mean it's a JW book!"

Cookie bertutur tentang Beauty Cookson, gadis cilik yang merasa rendah diri dan tak menjadi dirinya sendiri, karena sang ayah yang abusive, temperamental, dan terlalu membentuk Beauty--dan ibunya--sesuai apa yang ayahnya inginkan (yang sebenarnya sangat Beauty benci). Puncaknya saat ulang tahun Beauty, sang ayah makin tak terkendali. Beauty dan sang ibu pun memutuskan minggat dari rumah mewah mereka. I also feel that the character of Beauty's father was particularly well portrayed. He obviously felt a certain amount of love and affection for his daughter and wife, and wasn't only a villain. However, he was capable of some truly awful things. It was nice to see a character in a younger child's book rendered in many different shades of grey. This has to be my favourite JW of all time. It's so utterly tragic in the beginning, but Beauty's story still managed to be relatable because everyone's felt belittled even if it's just to a small degree. Of course, Dilly is my favourite mum character too. I feel like so often in JW the mum is the problem parents so to see a mother so dedicated to her daughter's happiness made me tear up so many times. Beauty, the heroine of this modern fairy tale, is virtually friendless and re-christened 'Ugly' by her school tormentors. She's also contending with an explosively angry father who delights in belittling her and her mother.But Wilson is one of the 4,250 signatories to the No To Age Banding petition, which is spearheaded by Philip Pullman. Eight hundred authors and illustrators including JK Rowling, Terry Pratchett and Michael Rosen have declared the practice "ill-conceived, damaging to the interests of young readers, and highly unlikely ... to make the slightest difference to sales". They fear it will both demoralise children reading below their age band, and encourage complacency in those reading above their age. Beauty Cookson is no beauty. She's a plain, timid girl who constantly feels inferior to the super-confident, snooty girls at school. Worse than the teasing in the playground, though, is the unpredictable, hurtful criticism from her father. Beauty and her meek, sweet mother live in uneasy fear of his fierce rages, sparked whenever they break one of his fussy house rules.

Jacqueline Wilson wrote her first novel when she was nine years old, and she has been writing ever since. She is now one of Britain's bestselling and most beloved children's authors. She has written over 100 books and is the creator of characters such as Tracy Beaker and Hetty Feather. More than forty million copies of her books have been sold. Aku suka keseluruhan cerita, tapi menurutku karakter yg justru amat sangat kusoroti di sini justru mamanya Beauty. Dilly adalah karakter yg paling membuatku kagum, bagaimana perkembangan karakternya dibuat sangat perlahan tapi pasti. Dilly ibu yg sangat amat baik namun sayangnya selalu dapat perlakuan tidak pantas dan tidak adil menurutku.

Jaqueline Wilson selalu membuat cerita sederhana tetapi menyentuh, walaupun ini bercerita dari sisi pandang seorang anak tetapi kisahnya sendiri lebih sebagai bahan pelajaran bagi orang tua untuk memahami dunia anak. The book was age-banded (as "9+") by the publisher, despite Wilson's opposition to the practice. [1] [2] Plot [ edit ] Cookie’s real name is Beauty. Her Dad is successful, but he’s quite a jerk. It is painful to witness, but not dark. Her mother, Dilly, is a young trophy wife, Dad’s third marriage. People often think Dilly and Beauty are sisters. All that, the first half of the book, culminates in a striking, 5-star chapter that takes place on Beauty’s birthday. The second half of the book changes tone - you’ll be happy for Beauty and her mother. In fact, Dilly grows as a person during the course of the story, which was an interesting bonus. Their mother/daughter relationship is fascinating, actually, because Beauty is brainier than her mother.

An interesting point that I particularly noted on this reading, is that when Beauty's mother tells someone about the situation at home, saying he slapped her and twisted her wrist, and perhaps she and Beauty could get a council flat or stay in a refuge, the response is: 'Oh get a grip, Dilys! Most of those poor women in those places have been beaten to a pulp. They'd give their right arms to swap places with you...'
