Product Description

Helly Johnston is miserable. Her mother is thinking of marrying again, but Helly doesn't want a stepfather, certainly not this one. She sobs her way out of the classroom all the way down to the cloakroom and the depths of despondency. There, forceful Kitty Killin comes to the rescue.

Kitty's not known for sensitivity or tact, but she's been through it all herself - her mother married the silver-haired, chocolate-bearing, goggle-eyed Gerald. Kitty begins to unfold her tale of how her mother seems so changed by Gerald's presence, of how her little sister takes to him at once, and how Old Goggle-Eyes remains a perpetual thorn in Kitty's side.

Format:Paperback
A extrordinary book about Kitty who hates her mothers boyfriend. Everyone seems to like him but her. Why doesn't Kitty like him? She makes life as difficult as possible for him but he will not leave. Very funny! I liked this book as it was funny and an easy read. I have read this book before but I could read it again and again.

This book is a fantastic book with a fanatic plot leaving you in suspence, wondering what will happen to Goggle-eyes and if kitty will ever like Gerald Falkner. The informal langage (slang) is funny as it makes you feel more in the book. The way Anne Fine describes Gerald Falkner ,and his persistance towards nuclear power lets you in to the heart of the book. I would recomend this book for 10 to 12 year old's
