Description

The book follows the life of Lottie Brooks, a young girl navigating the complexities of middle school life, friendships, and the confusing world of crushes. As Lottie deals with the ups and downs of adolescence, she learns valuable lessons about the importance of being true to oneself and the power of friendship. The story is a humorous and heartfelt exploration of the mega-complicated crushes of Lottie Brooks. Lottie Brooks is BACK for more extremely embarrassing adventures as she goes on holiday and gets her very first boyfriend! THINGS THAT ARE RUBBISH IN MY life include having the most disgusting little brother in the entire world, having to get braces when I am on the brink of having my first kiss, and Mum making cottage pie for dinner which is VOM. Finally, summer has arrived and Lottie has BIG plans - scrolling through Instagram, dreaming about MEGA-crush Daniel and sunbathing by the pool on their family holiday to France. Then Lottie meets new CRUSH Antoine. The language is a tiny bit of a barrier but does it matter when he's THAT good looking? Readers LOVE Lottie, with many finding her relatable and funny, and kids enjoying her adventures in a positive, life-affirming fashion.
