Kitty Killin is not only a good storyteller but also the World's Expert when it comes to mothers having new and unwanted boyfriends. That's why she's sent to talk to Helly Johnston in the dark privacy of the lost property cupboard, and why she tells the story of her mother and Gerald Faulkner.

レビュー

  • des histoires comme ça où une fille n'aime pas le petit ami de sa mère il y en a plein .j'ai pris 20mns pour chaque page

  • This was a great book. I could honestly feel what the characters were feeling. Goggle-eyes takes you on a journey through Kitty's emotions towards Gerald Faulkner and has a fabulous heart-warming ending. 5 stars definitely worth reading 😁

  • Goggle-eyes is Kitty's potential step-father. He earns the title because of the way he looks at Kitty's mother. Kitty slowly get to know him and accept him for what he is. This is set in another era. The characters don't have mobile phone and Kitty and her mother are protesting abut nuclear weapons. Yet Anne Fine presents us with a problem that is recognizable even in the first quarter of the 21st century. Marriages break up and mothers and fathers acquire new partners that the children have to learn to tolerate. Kitty tells her story to another young girl who dislikes her motehr's new partner.

  • Anne Fine is a brilliant writer. Her books for older children are particularly enjoyable, for both children and adults, as they can be read at different levels of understanding.

  • Bought for my 11 year old daughter who struggles reading due to dyslexia. I had forgotten what a 'fine' writer Anne Fine was. My daughter was hooked, and hopefully enthused to of Anne's work.
