My Sister Jodie

Product Information

In My Sister Jodie, Jodie dies two chapters from the end - but this is given away in some versions of the blurb. Pearl and her parents are devastated. Newspapers claim Jodie committed suicide. They leave Melchester College to live in a flat in London, because they say that they would not be able to face Melchester College ever again. Before they move, Sharon reveals she is having a baby, meaning the pregnancy test was hers. Pearl is not keen at first but soon grows to love her new sister May, even using the book that Mrs Wilberforce gave her to write about the story of her and Jodie, so that May can read it when she is older. At the conclusion of the book, Pearl states that while she will be a good big sister to May, she'll never be as good as Jodie was to her.

Huge Schoolgirl - Ellie, who is embarrassed about her weight and large bust. Nadine, who's mentioned as very tall, may also count. Katy in Katy is also stated to be exceptionally tall for her age, although this is less noticeable after she has to use a wheelchair.

Miss Oliver from My Mum Tracy Beaker becomes this. She looks out for Jess and is very understanding when she gets popular after Tracy starts dating Sean and helping her after they break up. The two develop a friendship outside of school, especially after she and Cam become friends.

Ellie in the Girls series is described as overweight, and while her common sense can be questionable, it is shown several times that she is more intelligent than her two skinny friends, especially when it comes to meeting boys. My Beloved Smother - Mandy in Bad Girls has one. Mary in Take a Good Look has a grandmother who won't let her do anything (use scissors, go to a nearby shop, or even get out of bed while she's recovering from a cold) because Mary is partially sighted. Every moment of every day is filled with thoughts of my beautiful boys, Mark and Evan, my mother, Ruth, my sister, Jodie Lee and my partner Sean,” the Derry woman said. Always Identical Twins: Ruby and Garnet. Averted in The Butterfly Club where triplets Tina, Maddie and Phil are not identical because Tina is considerably smaller than the other two. Embarrassing Damp Sheets: Happens to many characters when they become stressed. However, this happens regularly to Kevin in Wave Me Goodbye. He eventually manages to overcome it by getting up every two hours.Deconstructed with Jayni in Lola Rose who does love her dad, but can't get away from the fact that he's very violent to her mother (and has threatened Jayni himself), despite frequently proclaiming how much he loves his children. She also feels under pressure to act like this trope in case he gets angry with her for not showing enough affection. Can't Get Away with Nuthin' - Very common, especially in Tracy Beaker books. An example spanning a whole book is Take a Good Look. Mary defies her grandmother's instructions not to go out alone just once (so she can go to buy sweets at a shop that's only a few minutes away - and ends up being taken hostage by armed robbers. Lame Pun Reaction - Elsa gets a number of these in The Bed and Breakfast Star; she wants to be a comedian, but all the jokes she knows are incredibly cheesy. She later discovers people find her more entertaining when she's not actively trying to be funny. Ambiguously Gay: Mr Benjamin from Dancing The Charleston states that he has no interest in getting married and has a "pal" called Ambrose who stays with him. It's not stated what their relationship is, however, but that may be because the story is set in 1925, when such a relationship was illegal. Wilson's first book for children, Nobody's Perfect, involved a girl looking for her biological father.

Honorary Uncle: Mona in Dancing The Charleston considers Mr Benjamin one. He is eventually revealed to be her real uncle. Emergency workers and witnesses to the Buncrana pier tragedy continue to struggle to come to terms with the disaster five years after the drowning, some of those present on the night have revealed. Helen has some shades of the trope, as she is a renowned academic and writer - although she makes it clear that she isn't a genius, and got where she is through hard work. Dancing The Charleston has an example: Mona's "aunt" is really her mother and just pretended to be an aunt to cover up her illegitimate pregnancy.

Reviews

Pearl Wells- The narrator and main character of the book. Her sisters are May and Jodie and Sharon and Joe are her parents and she loves to read. She is the good, shy, quiet sister, and looks up to Jodie. The Love is Lovecollection is meant to serve as little reminders to Love – be it to your best friend, significant other, sister, or self. I’m 32 and don’t yet have kids or a family of my own (though I spend 90% of my time with my sister, her husband, and my niece), but my career has brought me great fulfilment on a number of levels. Over these last 10 years in New York, I’ve experienced tremendous love – many times and in many forms.I’ve learned more about myself through every relationship and I’ve grown in ways I never imagined. Prudence calls out her Dad at the beginning of "Love Lessons", though he has a stroke minutes later and she feels terribly about if even though she was right. Tilly from Rent a Bridesmaid has a mother who has been absent from the family for at least a year and a half. Nadine does this to Ellie quite a lot in the Girls series, a standout example being when Ellie points out how stupid it is to trust a guy online and he could be having creepy fantasies about her in a bikini, Nadine retorts that Ellie's just jealous because she's too fat for anybody to imagine her in a bikini - even worse when you consider Ellie struggled with Bulimia in Girls Under Pressure.
