Book Description

Publication Date: 1 Mar 2012 | Series: Alice Miranda

Can one tiny girl change a very big school?

Alice-Miranda Highton-Smith-Kennigton-Jones can't wait to start boarding school. When she arrives at Winchesterfield-Downsfordvale Academy for Proper Young Ladies, the adventure begins . . . only not quite as Alice-Miranda expects.

The minute she sets foot on the school's manicured grounds, she senses that something is wrong: Miss Grimm, the headmistress, is nowhere to be seen, the gardens have no flowers, and a mysterious stranger seems to be hiding out on the premises.

But that's not all. Some girls are mean and spoiled, like Alethea Goldsworthy. Can Alice-Miranda defeat Alethea in one of three difficult tests she must pass to remain at school? Will she discover Winchesterfield-Downsfordvale's big secret and make things right? Well, if anyone can, it's Alice-Miranda!

Review

"Alice-Miranda at School is a modern story with a touch of the classics about it . . . Adventurous, beautifully written, comfortable and fun" (Kids Books Review )

"[Alice Miranda's] effervescent personality lends itself well to the novel's hyperbolic atmosphere, and her optimism is contagious" (Publishers Weekly )

"Packed with giggles and wild adventures, you'll fall for Alice-Miranda and you'll love this read!" (Girl Power )

Full of humour and with very likeable characters, this book sets a benchmark for a fantastic new

5.0 out of 5 stars I <3 Alice-Miranda 13 Feb 2013
By christine sayer
Format:Paperback
My daughter was bought the 1st 2 A-M books as a birthday present, & has been hooked ever since. We were fortunate enough to meet Jacquie Harvey (here in the UK promoting books 3 & 4). What a wonderful lady she is, & so passionate about her characters & followers alike. I'd recommend these books 100%, even my Mums read them.
