The Diary of the Naughtiest Girl

What would Enid Blyton’s ultimate bad girl write in her diary? Funny hero Jeanne Willis and artist Alex T. Smith are here to show you! Spoiled brat Elizabeth Allen is being packed off to boarding school, with nothing to entertain her except a fake ostrich skin diary. Her rotten parents didn’t even give her a laptop. So cruel! How will she survive without her luxurious home comforts and her pony Ross (the only boy she’s ever loved)? There’s only one thing for it: she has to be so naughty she’s sent home! Just how bad can she be?

  • A hilarious modern reimagining of a Blyton classic
  • All-star team of Jeanne Willis and Alex T. Smith
  • Laugh-out-loud diary format full of hilarious doodles
  • Perfect for fans of Tom Gates and Dork Diaries
