"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." But when Sadie's mum goes down with flu Sadie finds herself spending her half-term holiday not only looking after her mum but helping to mind the babies too. There's three-year-old Gemma, two-year-old Vincent, baby Clive and Sadie's own baby sister, Sara. But, "us girls have got to stick together", so with Sadie's help all the mums take a turn. On Wednesday Gemma's mum takes them to her police station, on Thursday they go to an office and on Friday they go to Clive's mum's chocolate shop. This hilarious and heart-warming story first published in 1993 by the award-winning author of The Suitcase Kid and The Story of Tracy Beaker is sure to go down well with all 7-11 year olds and, as with all Jacqueline Wilson's stories, it is particularly good for enticing and entertaining the more reluctant reader.
Running time is 55 minutes. --Tamsin Palmer --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Mum minder by Jacqueline Wilson,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Mum-Minder (Paperback)
The Mum-Minder is a brilliant novel for budding writers as it shows that good stories don't just have to be about really extravagant things. The Mum-Minder is about a nine year old called Sadie and her mum who is a child-minder. Her mum comes down with the flu, so Sadie tries to take over. Sadie is only nine so she can't look after her, so the parents that she childminds for decided to take it in turns to take them to their work.They end up going from offices to chocolate shops. It's a brilliant novel that eveyone should read.

Harriet's review,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: The Mum-Minder (Paperback)
The mum minder is very good and humorous.
I liked the fact that the book was written in a diary format. Sadie's mum was unfortunately very sick and Sadie had to step in and take over her job as a child-minder. My favourite part is when Sadie gets to go to the chocolate shop with all the children. I would recommend this book for all Jacqueline Wilson fans.
