Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Jacqueline Wilson's Girls In Tears is the fourth instalment in her successful Girls series, following the lives and loves of three buddies--Ellie, Magda and Nadine--each very different but each bound by an absolute bond of friendship.

As ever, things are not running so smoothly for the girls. Ellie's romance is on its last legs, thanks to a persistent boyfriend, Nadine is "in love" with a boy she met on the Internet and is planning to go and meet him despite the other girls' insistence that things may not be quite as they seem, and Magda's hamster has died, leaving her less than happy with her friends' response to her grief. Each of them is shedding tears (rivers of them, in fact) and none of them can quite get to grips with the idea that their all-time best mates seem to be so absorbed in their own problems that communication between them is fast breaking down...

Jacqueline Wilson, award-winning queen of tell-it-as-it-is children's literature, hits the teen spot with this straightforward, highly enjoyable novel, adding further flesh to the bones of the characters her loyal readers will have come to love in Girls In Love, Girls Under Pressure and Girls Out Late. She tackles the everyday issues that really count (school, boys, family life, friendship, bad hair, imperfect bodies...) perfectly capturing the raw emotions her characters endure through their daily lives, while telling a darn good story that will leave readers asking, "How soon can we read the next one?".

Age 11 and over. --Susan Harrison



Product Description

Ellie, Magda and Nadine are back - and, as usual, they've got all sorts of trouble with school, parents and boyfriends. This time a sneaky kiss at a party threatens to break Ellie and Magda's friendship for ever. But they both know that Nadine's about to get into big trouble with an 'Internet date' and only the two of them together can save her. Will pride or friendship come first? Get caught up in the wonderfully engrossing world of these three teenage girls and their absorbing, convincing and entertaining lives and loves.

5.0 out of 5 stars AWESOME!, 2 May 2008
By Mehajabeen Farid "Mej_da_reviewer" (Coventry) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
The story plot of the book
This book is about a girl, called Ellie, her family (her dad, step mother and little brother), her best friends, Nadine and Magda, and her boyfriend called Russell. Follow her as she lives a life in tears: of joy, happiness, anger and sorrow.

About the author of the book
Jacqueline Wilson is one of my favourite authors and she wrote this book! She has her own personal collection of over 15,000 books and I have about a thirtieth of that!

About the awards and sequel for the book:
This book is part of Wilson's Girls series which includes Girls in Love, Girls out Late, Girls under Pressure and Girls in Tears (this book).This book is the winner of the Children's Book of the Year 2002 and the WH Smith Children's Book of the Year.

My awards for the book
I would rate this brilliant book 10/ 10; I really, really enjoyed this book, to prove that I really, really enjoyed this book I couldn't put it down until the very end! I would recommend it to anyone who really likes Jacqueline Wilson's books - just like me, especially older girls.

5.0 out of 5 stars Girls in Tears is the BEST!, 17 May 2003
By H. Wilkinson - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
If you've been waiting like me for the 4th book of the Girls serious than you'll be pleased with this. The book lives up to your expetations and has more tears and laughs than the others. It has the "only one more page" book where by the end you've read about ten. You are left on the edge of your seats! Elle, Magda and Nadine, are hitting the age where boys and now Internet are the best things, but they get in the way of the three girls friendship and they become to argue. Elle's relationship with her boyfriend hits the rocks, and with other trouble amoungst the situation on people lying about who they are on the internet, it makes the story become real and alive and makes you think about what your doing and that this could happen too you.
If your over 13 than this is the book for you, if boys and the net are part of your everyday life than this is the book for you. And if you just want a story which will keep your reading on and to have a good laugh and cry then Girls in tears is for you.

3.0 out of 5 stars Meh...., 9 Dec 2008
By Lilly Potter "Sam" (Stourbrigde, WM, Uk) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Girls in Tears (Paperback)
I used to be a massive Wilson fan, I have most of her books apart from her newer ones.
I also used to be a big Girls Series fan but over the last year I've become annoyed by the books.

The main character of Ellie is very annoying throughout the book, her attitude at most times just annoys and makes me want to yell "Just get over it!" at her.

The biggest problem I find with the books on whole is that they are written aobut three thirteen year old girls. That is what makes it unbelievable. They are thirteen year old girls who get into a over 18's nightclub without proof of age in the first book. Nadine dates college boys and all three of them talk aobut having sex at their age. They dont act like thirteen year old girls at all and it's really put me off the books.
