The Mum-Minder

I'm Sadie and I'm nearly nine. Mum's a childminder, but she doesn't have to mind me. I can mind myself, easy-peasy. Lucky for Mum, because now she's got the flu, so I've got to mind her - and help with all the babies!

Reviews

Funny and warm-hearted . . . through Sadie's uncritical eyes, the babies' antics and adult failings are the stuff of comedy . . . Wittily illustrated

—— Daily Mail

A fine eye for the details of chaos

—— Independent on Sunday

High energy, zappy storytelling

—— Junior Bookshelf

The humorous account of a vivacious girl coping cheerfully and resourcefully with a problem life . . . Very entertaining reading . . . Should appeal to most primary school readers, particularly girls, and is well served by its attractive cover

—— School Librarian

An entertaining romp that leaves no doubt that Mr Gethers and his cat have a most remarkable relationship

—— New York Times Book Review

Excellent story, hot characters. This one just rattles along, with beautiful dialect dialogue and family tensions. Teenage girls who pore over horoscopes and worry about boys will love this one!
