The Blurb On The Back:
Five things that happen in this book that you DO NOT WANT TO MISS:
1. I appear on ACTUAL TV.
2. My teacher LITERALLY tells us to P.E.E. in class.
3. I locate dead people’s lost jewellery in exchange for luxury BISCUITS.
4. I discover where you can get FREE HOT CHOCOLATE.
5. I find out about a HUGE secret my mums have been keeping from me.
WARNING: Janey has been extra painy recently (one thing that might put you off).
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
The second in Jen Carney’s self-illustrated ACCIDENTAL DIARY series for readers aged 9+ is an enjoyable read with good inclusivity (notably its matter-of-fact attitude to adoption). Billie’s obliviousness is quite endearing, the humour’s silly in a good way and I enjoyed the frenemy thing going on between her and Janey, but there was slightly too many poo jokes for me and the resolution to the Billie/Janey rivalry was a bit pat.
THE ACCIDENTAL DIARY OF B.U.G: BASICALLY FAMOUS was released in the United Kingdom on 19th August 2021. Thanks to the Amazon Vine Programme for the review copy of this book.
