Girls in Tears
Jacqueline Wilson
Genres: Fiction
I get out my sketchbook and spend an hour or more drafting little versions of Myrtle. It’s fun inventing different outfits for her. I decide she looks cutest in little dungarees with embroidered daisies and a matching daisy ear stud in one round mouse ear. I experiment with her footwear. I try out dancing slippers and big boots and girly strappy sandals. I give her a little knapsack to pack when she leaves home.Then I try out various adventures. I really put poor little Myrtle through a lot of ...trauma. It’s like she’s caught up in a little mousy melodrama. She’s stalked by cats, chased by dogs, and attacked by a gang of rat-boys. She enjoys a gargantuan feast in a kitchen but very very nearly ends up in a mouse-trap. She has a sore paw and is nursed back to health by a motherly hamster (Fudge resurrected). She goes on a long night trek with a gothic girl rat with twenty rings through her tail and attends a muddy gig at Rodentbury.I’m so soothed by my imaginary world of Myrtle that I almost forget the horrible Dad and Anna situation.MoreLess
