Editorial Review:


Susannah Harker reads Sleep-overs in this unabridged two-cassette pack.

New-girl-in-school Daisy faces up to familiar childhood dilemmas in this great story for younger readers written by the acclaimed, bestselling author Jacqueline Wilson. Daisy is finding her feet with a new group of friends, slowly becoming "one of the gang" who take it in turns to have sleep-over parties. But with her own turn to play host fast approaching, Daisy is faced with the task of telling her new friends about her mentally and physically disabled older sister, and she is unsure how they will react. The spoilt Chloe, with her snide bullying tactics, presents a particular problem: she has been reluctant to let Daisy into the group, and this could give her just the excuse she needs...

As ever, Wilson combines superlative, on-the-nose storytelling with an intuitive accuracy that captures the essence of familiar childhood insecurities. Readers will laugh, cry and cringe their way through this outstanding tale as Wilson's trademark heroine wins the day. Sleep-overs is a cracking story for children aged seven and over.

Running time is two hours. --Susan Harrison

A Review on Sleepovers by Jacqueline Wilson (2/2 people found this helpful)

I think Sleepovers is a great book! Daisy (the main character)is being bullied by Chloe, who shows off about everything she can. Daisy wants to be best friends with Emily, who is best friends with Chloe but she soon regrets it and wishes she was best friends with Daisy.
It is great because, I think it shows people what bullying is like (as it is written in the first person), and why you shouldn't bully.
This book has brilliant pictures, and is good for girls aged 7-10.
