My Sister Jodie

When their parents get new jobs as the cook and caretaker at a fusty old boarding school, Pearl & Jodie have to move there and spend their summer holidays in the school with just a few children and staff for company. And when they arrive, things start to change. Jodie has always been the leader - but now it's Pearl who's making new friends, like the amazingly tall, badger-watching Harley and Mrs Wilberforce, the wife of the Head who's confined to a wheelchair but introduces Pearl to wonderful new books. Jodie just seems to be getting into more and more trouble – arguing with Mum, scaring the little children, flirting with the gardener . . .
