Look insideBad Girls
“Kim’s gang had better watch out! Because Tanya’s my friend now, and she’ll show them!”
Mandy’s been having a rotten time at school ever since her used-to-be best friend Melanie started picking on her. But now she has a new friend instead: cheeky, trendy, daring Tanya, who has an unhappy life but doesn’t seem to care. Tanya likes Mandy – she reminds her of her own sister, who’s in care – and the two soon become fast friends. But Mandy’s mum isn’t happy. She thinks Tanya’s a bad girl and a bad influence. And when Tanya starts pinching things, it seems as if Mandy’s mum might be right…

Mandy White is a plain girl who is smothered by her parents. She is constantly bullied at school by Kim and her gang, but one day, an older girl from across the street befriends her and encourages Mandy to live a bit more. Their troublesome antics will make you laugh, their scrapes will pluck at your heart strings; a satisfying read for the population of girls!
