Fun little read, I would definitely have this one in my classroom
However, I’ve yet to come across a Jacqueline Wilson novel that does not make negative comments about people who are fat??

Whilst this is a simple story as an adult, I think as a children’s book it’s fabulous! I would definitely read this to my class to show that not everyone is sporty but everyone is good at something. I think it’s a lovely quick story with some good talking point for children.
Although the postcard to Kelly at the end kinda ruined it... seemed unnecessary and random.
