The age group this book is aimed for will miss some subtle things that I noticed. This book has a lot of subtext. The mother is a character that under different penwomanship would have fit into a much darker type of novel. There are hints about this.

Crummy Mummy and Me Audiobook - Anne Fine - Listening Books

How would you feel if your mother had royal-blue hair and wore lavender fishnet tights? But Minna's whole family (including her mum's punk boyfriend, Crusher Maggot) is a bit unusual. Being the only sensible one is not easy for Minna... Read more Details Anne has written more than sixty books for children and young people. Amongst numerous other awards, she is twice winner of both the Carnegie Medal, Britain's most prestigious children's book award, and the Whitbread Award. Twice chosen as Children's Author of the Year in the British Book Awards, Anne Fine was also the first novelist to be honoured as Children's Laureate in the United Kingdom. In 2003, Anne became a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature and was awarded an OBE. Her work has been translated into forty five languages. Teate see lugu meenutab neid lugusid, kus toimub vahetus nt mehest saab üle öö naine ja naisest mees. Sest kas on võimalik, et ema, kes lubab lapsel olla üleval nii kaua kui tahab mis sest, et homme on koolipäev söödab sisse väiksele lapsele tohutus koguses erinevaid magusaid tooteid ja seal samas on heal juhul 10 aastane, kes ütleb, et ta ei tohiks neid üldse süüa. Ja ütleb emale, mis on normaalne riietus ehk millega kõlbab minna õpetajaga kohtuma. Though readers often find themselves inadvertently laughing aloud as they read Anne Fine's novels, as she herself admits, "a lot of my work, even for fairly young readers, raises serious social issues. Growing up is a long and confusing business. I try to show that the battle through the chaos is worthwhile and can, at times, be seen as very funny." In 1994, this unique combination of humour and realism inspired the hit movie MRS. DOUBTFIRE, based on Anne's novel MADAME DOUBTFIRE and starring the late comedic genius Robin Williams.How would you feel if your mother had royal-blue hair and wore lavender fishnet tights? But Minna's whole family (including her mum's punk boyfriend, Crusher Maggot) is a bit unusual. Being the only sensible one is not easy for Minna... The second chapter is the weakest: their TV is stolen, the family has nothing else to do so they decide to take a ride and see a bit of nature. What follows is the most ridiculous and far-fetched resolution to a burglary EVER. But Minna's whole family (including her mum's punk boyfriend, Crusher Maggot) is a bit unusual. Being the only sensible one is not easy for Minna...

Ocr ABBYY FineReader 8.0 Ocr_converted abbyy-to-hocr 1.1.6 Ocr_module_version 0.0.13 Openlibrary_edition Poor Ellie is horrified when Tuffy drags a dead bird into the house. Then a mouse. But Tuffy can't understand what all the fuss is about. It is not your typical book about a relationship between a young girl and her family. The girl starts off by seeming to be the adult in the family as well as quite unlikeable in the first story. Her development and relationships with others help her to grow into a character that I ended up liking. One of the most interesting things I found when reading this book is that it is thirty years since it was published. Aside from a reference to a VCR, you could think it was a modern novel. urn:oclc:869828841 Republisher_date 20120529073539 Republisher_operator [email protected] Scandate 20120528012023 Scanner scribe1.shenzhen.archive.org Scanningcenter shenzhen Worldcat (source edition)Forgotten the title or the author of a book?
