5.0 out of 5 stars A lovely book by an amazing story-teller!, March 9, 2002
A Kid's Review
This review is from: The Lottie Project (Paperback)
Once you start reading 'The Lottie Project', you just can't stop. I bought it just yesterday from a book store and I already finished reading it. All the characters are very well-portrayed and the illustrations are amusing. Charlie is an average eleven-year-old with lot's of problems. She doesn't like her new teacher who insists on calling her by her full name, Charlotte. She is made to sit with James Edward, the snobby, goody-two-shoes rich boy. She also has to do a project on the Victorians, whom she hardly knows anything about. But Charlie gets a lovely idea to make a diary for Lottie, a young girl who is sent to work as a nurserymaid in the Victorians' time. She gets quite absorbed in the project and finds that her real life isn't much different from fictional Lottie's. First, her mom loses her good job as a manager and has to do oddjobs like cleaning people's houses and baby-sitting. But worse than that, could Charlie's mom possibly have a boyfriend? All-in-all, an amazing story very well portrayed by a master story-teller. Well worth the money!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Book, February 6, 2002
A Kid's Review
This review is from: The Lottie Project (Paperback)
Charlotte Alice Katherine Enright (better known as Charlie) is getting to a point where life has several problems. First of all, she has no father (well, sort of. He left her and her mother when Charlie was very young), so Charlie and her mom aren't exactly the richest people, and live in a small apartment, with one bedroom, a bathroom,and a kitchen. Plus, her single, young mother, Joanne Enright (better known as Jo) has recently started dressing up and wearing makeup for no reason what so ever. And if that wasn't enough, she has even worse problems at school.

Charlie is starting a new year at school, and she thinks that it is going to be a great year, but she is very wrong.This year, she meets the devil: a new, extremely strict teacher named Ms.Beckworth, who ruined everything for Charlie. For example, Charlie was planning on sitting with her best friends Lisa and Angela, but instead, Ms. Beckworth put Lisa and Angela together, and put Charlie with the most irritating, snobby,smarty-pants kid in the whole class: Jamie Edwards. Plus, Ms. Beckworth assigned the class a boring Victorian project, but Charlie decided to give the project a little twist, and that's when the diary of Lottie, the Victorian nursery maid,was born. Will Charlie ever survive this year?

The cute, funny book, The Lottie Project, by Jacqueline Wilson, is an enjoyable, must-read book. I am not alone when I say, "I loved it!". This one-of-a-kind book could never relate to any other books. This book was cutely humorous, and was hard to put down. I really enjoyed the fact that Jacqueline Wilson compared a main character (Charlie) with history (Lottie). If you enjoy books that are just plainly sad, mysterious, or historical, then maybe this isn't‚ your match. But, if you are a person who enjoys a cheery story with a tint of sadness, a speckle of mystery, and a tad bit of history, then this is definitely the book for you!
