Editorial Review:
Sophie Aldred reads Jacqueline Wilson's Lizzie Zipmouth in this unabridged single-cassette audio book, which is accompanied by a paperback book.
Lizzie refuses to speak. It's as if she has a zip across her mouth. She doesn't want to talk to anyone, especially her new stepbrothers and their dad. She certainly doesn't feel like talking to her mum. Then one day a member of her new family turns out to be even more stubborn than Lizzie, and things begin to change...
Jacqueline Wilson strikes hard, fast and funny in this deceptively simple story for younger children. Her characters are strong and memorable, the writing is superb and the storytelling is captivating enough to lure the most reluctant of listeners.
This tale of a young girl coming to terms with her parents' divorce and her new identity as a stepchild is a mini-masterpiece. Although it's aimed at younger children it can be enjoyed by any Wilson fan. And rest assured--if anyone can keep a child hooked, it is Jacqueline Wilson. Be prepared to find yourself forking out for everything by this extraordinary author. Running time is 50 minutes. --Susan Harrison

this is the most boring book i have ever read. i dont want to read it again and never will because its not a page turner i could only read one page and you knew what was going to happen next. lizzie does not like her step dad does she.
