Feely has to write a school report about life in the 1950s. Everyone starts to interview their grannies and grandads, but Feely doesn’t have her own old person to talk to. So how can she write a report that’s going to be better than Saffron’s? Feely needs to talk to somebody who was alive in the 1950s. Mrs Baggot might help – but only if she can stop being so crabby. Girls love Feely! Phoebe Dorcas Tonks – Feely to everyone but her teacher – has another hilarious adventure in this book, one of the ‘Feely’ series by Barbara Catchpole, author of the best-selling ‘PIG’ books. Coupled with fantastic black-and-white illustrations and an easy-to-read diary format, the laugh-out-loud humour and merciless honesty will appeal to all readers.
