Fourteen year old Jade is having a miserable time at home. Her step-father is overly strict. Her mother doesn't like confrontation. Her sister, Kirsty, is an infuriating goody two shoes. Jade is at That Age. She's stroppy, opinionated and faddy. She likes boys and make up. She doesn't like eating meat. She has an intense - and voluble - dislike for most of her teachers. Jade's step-father is old-fashioned, very religious and a strict disciplinarian. It's all a recipe for disaster really.
Fans of Jean Ure can write to her via her [http://www.jeanure.com/ website].
If your child likes Jean Ure but needs something more demanding, try [[The Illustrated Mum]] by Jacqueline Wilson. If they're not quite ready for a full-length novel, try Anne Fine's [[How To Write Really Badly]]. We can also recommend [[The Mapmakers' Race by Eirlys Hunter]].
