Lottie Brooks vs The Ultra Mean Girls (Lottie Brooks, 8)
From hilarious MEGA bestselling author, Katie Kirby, comes a brand-new story from the phenomenal Lottie Brooks series!
Today we brainstormed strategies to #GETAMBERBACK. Our top ideas are:

Join Lottie as she battles the mean girls, takes on school injections (apparently they can go through your arm!) and even more extremely embarrassing moments.
Readers LOVE Lottie Brooks:
My daughter couldn’t put it down and read it in 2 days. Read at breakfast, walking downstairs, tea time, in the bath.
My 9-year-old daughter devoured it in two nights, and all I could hear from her was giggling and the occasional “Mum! Listen to this! This is SO me!”.
My 12 year old reluctant reader took this book, read 100 pages in one night and proclaimed it ‘the best book ever’
