Description

A hilarious new story in the number one bestselling Lottie Brooks series.

From hilarious MEGA bestselling author, Katie Kirby, comes a brand-new story from the phenomenal Lottie Brooks series!

Today we brainstormed strategies to #GETAMBERBACK. Our top ideas are:

Send her flowers
Hypnotise her
Kidnap her
Tell everyone she smells like lasagne
Emotionally blackmail her by making a BFF photo montage

Just when Lottie thought life might be going back to normal, everything goes wrong again! Amber's hanging out with the Ultra Mean Girl Gang at school and is completely ignoring the Queens of Eight Green. Mum's gone back to work and expects Lottie to 'help around the house more', Bella keeps biting everyone and Pot Noodle will not stop sniffing every dog's bum. DISASTER!

Now Lottie has to come up with a foolproof plan to get Amber back before her friendship group is destroyed forever. What could go wrong???

Join Lottie as she battles the mean girls, takes on school injections (apparently they can go through your arm!) and endures even more extremely embarrassing moments.

Readers LOVE Lottie Brooks:

My daughter couldn't put it down and read it in 2 days. Read at breakfast, walking downstairs, tea time, in the bath.
My 9-year-old daughter devoured it in two nights, and all I could hear from her was giggling and the occasional "Mum! Listen to this! This is SO me!"
My 12-year-old reluctant reader took this book, read 100 pages in one night and proclaimed it 'the best book ever'
Katie has managed to capture the essence of what this group think and feel in a positive, life-affirming fashion

Have you read all of Lottie's embarrassing diaries?

About the Author

Katie Kirby is a writer and illustrator who lives by the sea in Hove with her husband, two sons and dog Sasha. She has a degree in Advertising and Marketing and after spending several years working in London media agencies, which basically involved hanging out in fancy restaurants and pretending to know what she was talking about, she had some children and decided to start a blog called 'Hurrah for Gin' about the gross injustice of it all. Many people said her sense of humour was silly and immature so she now writes children's books. Katie likes gin, rabbits, over-thinking things, the smell of launderettes and Monster Munch. She does not like losing at board games or writing about herself in the third person.
