Look insideThe Story of Tracy Beaker
“I’m Tracy Beaker. This is a book all about me. I’d read it if I were you. It’s the most incredible, dynamic, heart-rending story. Honest.”
Ten-year-old Tracy has had a tough time. She lives in a children’s home known as the Dumping Ground, and has never seen her mum or dad. Tracy longs for a real home and a family of her own. Meanwhile she spends her time writing her life story – in between fighting with the other kids! But when Cam, a writer, visits the home and takes a shine to Tracy, could her dream of a proper place to live come true?
