This book is fantastic; I read it a couple of weeks ago and it's all about two (I think)Year 6 children called Laura Irwin and Oliver Boot, whose teacher is Mrs Coverley. They have to get penpals and write letters to them - although everyone in Mrs Coverley's class - except Oliver, who is fearless and admirable - is boring and when Laura pays a visit to Sticklebury (where they all seem to come from) she finds they DON'T EXIST!!! It's just some boring, middle-aged man who steals people's garden clippers and microwaves to help people, and he asks the kids in their letters 'Do you have microwaves?' bla bla bla. Laura, however, to make it seem less boring, calls herself Lady Melody Irwin, and invents a story of how she is from a noble and rich family. After reading 'Bad Dreams' 'The Tulip Touch' and quite a few more, I was not disappointed by this brilliant new Anne fine novel. You'll enjoy it, I promise. If you liked it, read 'Bill's New Frock', 'The Granny Project' or 'Round behind the Icehouse' (all by Anne Fine).

Laura and Oliver have started a new year of school and this year there teacher has said they are going to write to penpals in Stickleberry.Laura has a penpal called Miranda but Laura doesn't know that Miranda is a big fake.Oliver has a penpal called Simon and he always bites his finger nails and skips school.Laura reads Mirandas letter and it is very boring so Laura makes up a letter with a pack of lies in it.She makes up a name and her fake name is Lady Melody Estella Priscilla Hermione Irwin.
I liked the bit were Laura made up her fake letter she makes out she is very posh but she has got tiger heads and she lives in a big manshion.Her grandma has got massive jewelry boxes full of jewelry.But they are just big lies.
I dislike the story because there are to many letters to the penpals.
I recomend this story to 7s and 11s.
