My Mum Tracy Beaker: Now a major TV series
Jacqueline Wilson, Nick Sharratt, Nick Sharratt
Everyone’s favourite feisty heroine – Tracy Beaker is BACK in this entertaining novel featuring her daughter Jess. Now a major TV series on CBBC and iPlayer
‘An unbelievable talent’ – David Walliams
Jacqueline Wilson, most-loved author has sold 40 million copies of her books. Her characters don’t need a cape, or a special power to be a hero to generations of children; just huge imaginations, a bit of fierceness and a big heart. And there is no hero fiercer or more iconic than Tracy.
Now meet Tracy’s daughter, Jess in this heart-warming tale of unconventional families and unconditional love.
Jess and Tracy Beaker are the perfect team. They do everything together. Jess thinks Tracy is the best mum ever, even when she shouts at her teachers! Tracy has made the perfect home for Jess, leaving The Dumping Ground far behind her. Yes, it’s tiny, a bit mouldy and the Duke Estate is a bit scary. But it’s their happy home.
Until Sean Godfrey, Tracy’s rich boyfriend, whisks them away to a whirlwind life of fast cars and celebrity stardom.
Will Jess’s brilliant mum turn into a new person altogether?
And will Tracy realise that her childhood dream might not be what she needs after all?

Reviews

It was funny and I really enjoyed it.

The book was very nice to read. I loved the book a lot. The person I liked best was Tracy and Jess. My mum Tracy Beaker is a fiction book. The book is not factual. The book interests me because it’s a book I have not read and it’s a new author I haven’t heard of. I would recommended this book from the age of 8 and upwards.

I liked the ending because it was a happy ending. My favourite character was Tracy. My favourite bit of the book was when they were living with Sean Godfrey because there were lots of things happening and it was interesting. I would recommend this book to children who like adventure stories because it is like an adventure story.

I dont think it was nice of Tyrone to push Jess off the bench. The book is fiction and the character i like best is Jess Beaker because she is very brave and doesn't cry when she gets hurt

I liked Jess the best. I liked the book because it’s an interesting story that is funny and sad at the same time. I would recommend it to any child who likes Jacqueline Wilson aged 8-9 because it is a bit grown up.

This book is about a girl named Jessica beaker and her mum tracy beaker. Her mum is dated a rich footballer called Sean Godfrey. I had two favourite parts, my first favourite was when jess and tracy had to babysit Alice and her sisters. My second best part was when jess bought Tyrone (the bully) a Kit Kat and cheese and onion crisp. Jesses mum was really mad she gave her money for nail polish not for food (tracy doesn’t even like Tyrone the bully) i would totally recommend this book to people who like the story of tracy beaker or even kids who watched the shows

I thought it was really good and when I first read it, I didn’t really get how it was wrote, but once I got further in - I got it and it was really good

I love how they all ways stick together even when tracy gets carried away with Sean, because they are the Beaker Girls.

I found this funny, heart-warming and competitive. I'd recommend this for someone who's just had a bad day and needs a laugh-out-loud book. Even when trouble comes their way, Tracy and Jess are unstoppable.
