The Butterfly Club by Jacqueline Wilson - review

Jacqueline Wilson, The Butterfly Club

The Butterfly Club is an excellent book! It is about a girl called Tina who is one of triplets. She is different from her sisters. She is too small to do what they do but her sisters love her and take care of her. When they were in the infants they did everything together. Now they are in the juniors and according to Tina's teacher, Tina has to become more independent. Things go from bad to worse for Tina when she is made to sit with the meanest girl in class called Selma.

Tina is my favourite character because she sometimes reminds me of myself. Whenever she gets bullied by Selma, she bursts into tears and needs help from her sisters. I think it is good to have some support while you are trying to grow up and become more independent. In addition, my favourite part of the book is when Tina and Selma, two opposite characters, are asked by their teacher Miss Lovejoy to make a butterfly garden together. This is a tense moment which changes everything between them for the better. It just goes to show that you never know how things will turn out.

If I could rate this book from 1 out of 10, I would give it a big 10!
