Libby and her big sister Bella used to be close, but lately its felt like Bella is a closed book: shes sarcastic and mean and obsessed with her boyfriend. Then theres six-year-old Grace, the baby of the family. Whenever Mum and Dad arent at work, its all about Grace. So where does Libby fit in Things change suddenly when the girls move to the tiny village where their dad grew up as their bossy Aunt Thecla has offered to pay for them to go to a posh new school. Libby doesnt mind, but Bella cant bear to leave her boyfriend behind. Soon there are secrets everywhere Perfect for readers of Cathy Cassidy, Jacqueline Wilson and Judy Blume, Libby in the Middle is a story about family, friendship and discovering where you fit into the world.
