Mandy Small finds writing tricky, so her teacher gives her a tape recorder and tells her to tell her story instead. What follows is Mandy’s hilarious and touching account of her life—complete with an Elvis-impersonator dad, a toast-burning mum, and a cast of characters who make every day feel like a circus. From mean girls at school to a nosy nan who questions her parents’ ability to look after her, Mandy’s world is full of chaos, worry, and heart. But through it all, Mandy discovers her own voice.
