Sad but good 🥲
This is an emotional but heartwarming story. Some narrators ruin stories but Susannah Harker narrates this story beautifully. Really recommend. 6-11 years as some young children may find it sad. Definitely buy.

The Best Book Ever 🫂
This is the most incredible book in the whole world. I listen to it every single day. It has an incredible use of emotions and is funny and sad but overall my favorite book ever. I moved out of my home completely and went to a new place in England and I have no contact with any of my old friends but I still recommend this book a lot.

Story
When nine-year-old Allie Finkle's parents announce that the family is moving, Allie's sure her life is over. She's not at all happy about having to give up her pretty pink wall-to-wall carpeting for creaky floorboards and creepy secret passageways. With a room she's half-scared to go into, the burden of being "the new girl", and her old friends all a half-hour car ride away, how will Allie ever learn to fit in?

Story
Emma has a job in television which is distinctly less glamourous and exciting than it sounds. She's managed to claw her way up the ranks from Tea Maker and Rubbish Collector to Second Assistant Director (heavy on the assistant. Even heavier on the second.). So when she finds she's accidentally very pregnant and at the same time accidentally very sacked (well, less accidentally: she did tell her boss to stick his job up his bum), she knows things are going to have to change.
