Review

"Jean Ure's books are funny, funky, feisty - and fantastic reads!" Jacqueline Wilson Praise for Hunky Dory "More infectious humour from Jean Ure." Waterstone's Books Quarterly Praise for Gone Missing "Fans of Jean Ure and new readers alike will love this fast-paced, action driven new novel." INIS "Heartwarming stuff." CY Magazine 'Jean Ure does that girl thing like no one else.' Graham Marks, Publishing News Praise for Passion Flower: 'A funny and realistic read -- we loved it.' Mizz Praise for Pumpkin Pie: 'The heroine I've been waiting for.' Times Praise for Shrinking Violet: 'Grown-ups love Bridget Jones' Diary, but youngsters will adore Violet Alexander's.'

Product Description

A heart-warming gem of a novel about a very special girl who suddenly finds herself all alone in the world! Laurel is only twelve when her mum dies and she is shipped off to stay with relatives she hardly knows. Her new family don't seem to care about anything Laurel loves, including books and Mr Pooter, her old marmalade-coloured cat. So Laurel decides that she won't feel anything: she'll become Ice Lolly, the girl with the frozen heart. But a special friend and a mysterious letter open up new possibilities for Ice Lolly, and for Mr Pooter!

5.0 out of 5 stars The importance of books!, 2 Jan 2010
By Bookmark (Bedford) - See all my reviews
Ice Lolly is the story of a twelve year old girl having to deal with the demands of grief and bereavement. Withdrawing into her own private world, she is comforted only by her ever faithful cat: Mr Pooter and a collection of books that she once shared with her Mum. The story movingly records Laurel's efforts to come to terms with her loss but also to remain true to herself in unfamiliar and sometimes painful circumstances. The female roles in the story are all strong characters including Laurel herself who becomes compelled to take decisive actions that will affect the rest of her life. Jean Ure's own love of literature is conveyed in a story that draws on those tangible, non-human influences in our lives that provide us with real strength and comfort during times of apparent personal abandonment. This is Children's fiction at its best. The author has worked hard to create a story that confronts the true nature of relationships in a moving and quite inspirational way.
