An all-time favourite Tracy Beaker story, Jacqueline Wilson's most enduring and popular character.
I'm Tracy Beaker, the Great Inventor of Extremely Outrageous Dares – and I dare YOU not to say this is the most brilliant story ever!I've bought a big fat purple notebook for writing down all my mega-manic ultra-scary stories in. But especially for my own story. Of how my foster-mum, Cam, has turned out to be a real meanie. No designer clothes, when I really need them. A pokey flat, and a horrible new school. No wonder I keep bunking off ...Still, it will have to do until my real mum comes and gets me. And until then, no-one is going to be better at the Dare Game than me!

'Thoughtful sequel ... Wilson has a genius for conveying tricky material to those readers who can handle it.' -- The Times
'Without doubt the finest writer for the 8–12 age group we have, I dare you to miss this one.' -- Books Etc
