My Sister Jodie

Pearl and Jodie are like chalk and cheese. Pearl is quiet and cautious. Jodie is brash and bold and bad – and Pearl adores her. But when their parents get new jobs as a cook and caretaker at a fusty old boarding school, the sisters have to move… and everything starts to change. Jodie has always been the leader – but now it’s Pearl who’s making new friends. Pearl fits in with the posh teenagers at the school, while Jodie seems to be getting into more and more trouble. Maybe Pearl just doesn’t need Jodie like she used to… but Jodie needs her. And when Fireworks Night explodes with a tragedy, Pearl remembers how much she needs her big sister too… An emotional roller-coaster ride of a story from a superstar author.

    My Sister Jodie is one of the all-time best books! Jacqueline Wilson, you did an amazing jod! Pearl and her sister Jodie move to a bording school when their parents get new jobs working there. Jodie is your typical teenager: argumentitive, stroppy and stubborn. But also she is the perfect sister: funny, loving and caring. Pearl is totally the opposite of her sister, but looks up to her and has always wanted to be like here. But things don’t go as planned and in the end, Pearl maybe has to think about life without Jodie.
