Hetty Feather is the most compelling tale Wilson has told
*The Times*
Simply the best. Truly brilliant
*Sun*
Jacqueline Wilson has written another amazing book. If you love
Tracy Beaker then you'll certainly enjoy this too
*CBBC News*
This was the first Wilson novel I'd read, so I was unsure what to
expect. What I found was wonderful: a spell-binding and meaningful
story about a girl's search for her mother
*Waterstones.com*
Utterly original . . . it's the perfect gift for girls of eight and
older
