The Suitcase Kid (New ed)

When my parents split up they didn't know what to do with me...My family always lived at Mulberry Cottage.

Mum, Dad, me - and Radish, my Sylvanian rabbit. But now Mum lives with Bill, the Baboon and his three kids.

Dad lives with Carrie and her twins. And where do I live? I live out of a suitcase. Mum wanted me to go and live with her. My dad wanted me to go and live with him. I wanted to stay at our old place, all three of us together, but that wasn't allowed.

So in the end I got to live in my mum's house one week and my dad's house the next.

It's as easy as ABC...I don't think. This is a sensitive, humorous story about a girl whose life is turned upside down by her parents' divorce, read by Lesley Dunlop. "The Suitcase Kid" is a winner of the Children's Book Award.

Jacqueline Wilson has been awarded an OBE for services to literacy in schools.
