The Adventures of Ginger McLean - Amy Hodgins

Dear Reader, This book is all about me and the cruel world that I inhabit. Ever since the reception class, I've stood out. I'd like to think this was because I am exceptionally funny, clever and stylish, but others say that it's down to my CRAZY hair and big mouth. Whatever it is, I am definitely not to blame. A LOT of people are jealous of me and that is why going to high school will be brilliant. I will meet much better people there who don't wear pink leg warmers and glitter. If it wasn't for my best friend Frances and my she-hamster, Trevor, I don't know how I'd put up with the madness. Frances gets me, even if she still wants to play princesses-get-chased-by-witch, and that's a lot more than I can say for my stupid parents who insist on ruining my life with their stupid feuds. If only I can stop being such a loser whenever Milo Costigan is around, perhaps it'll all work out okay... See you on the other side, Ginger Mclean
