Product Description
Does money have to change everything? Charlotte and her family are detemined that winning £3.7 million on the lottery won't change them. But they haven't counted on how everyone around them will react. Charlotte's best friend is acting strangely and someone's spreading cruel rumours at school. Can Charlotte use the money to change things for the better?
From the Publisher
A warm and funny story about friendships, families and growing up. Charlotte is a quirky, lovable narrator with a distinctive voice. Penelope Bush avoids clichés and has created a richly textured slice of life, with rounded, totally believable characters.
The author's debut novel, Alice in Time, had excellent reviews and went to auction with three major US publishers.

Format:Paperback
I'm a 12/13 year old girl, and bought this book becuase I loved Penelope Bush's other book, Alice in time. The diary of a lottery winner's daughter is just as good, but as it is written from the perspective of a year 7 (instead of a year 10) , it is slightly less adult.
Charlotte, the girl who writes the diary, lives on a council estate with her mum, dad, sister and brother. In the summer holidays they go on holiday to (where else?) the seaside. On the pier a creepy mechanical gypsy fortune teller gives her a piece of paper telling her to be careful what she wishes for. A couple of hours later her mum wins the lottery...
It's not a particularly challenging read (I read for about 3 hours solidly and finished it within a morning), and the idea of money not being everything is slightly cliched, but nevertheless, this is a thoroughly entertaining, gripping and fun read! Penelope Bush is a wonderful author!
