I Don’t Need Reading Glasses!)Funny, often agonisingly sad - and familiar - The Lady (on No! I Don’t Need Reading Glasses)The latest, and best, of Ironside’s wonderful series … full of hilarious truths - Daily Mail on (No! I Don’t Need Reading Glasses)[Ironside’s] chatty style of writing is endearing, her escapades laugh-out-loud funny, her thoughts and feelings often poignant [and] her observations pin sharp - Choice Magazine on (No! I Don’t Need Reading Glasses)Wonderful, hilarious, warm-hearted … Ironside is a comic genius and Marie Sharp a brilliant creation. If life is getting you down, this is the book for you - Daily Mail (Summer Reading round-up)About The Author
