Things I Don't Know
Lenni doesn't understand her friends or family at all. Why does Anya want to start a dumb kissing competition? Why won't her grandmother quit hassling her about being more ladylike? And why is her athletics buddy Adam suddenly acting like a big weirdo around her?
Then Lenni meets Jo, the new girl at school. She's cool and fun, and totally on Lenni's wavelength. But as their friendship grows, Leni finds she has questions about Jo too. Or maybe they are questions about herself. Whatever it is, she doesn’t know the answers!

There's a reason that the number thirteen is bad luck... Sometimes it sucks to be thirteen!
No-one escapes thirteen unscathed - not even the best-looking, most popular people with the straightest teeth and shiniest hair. The best you can do is be true to yourself, even when everything's changing.
Girl v the World is a funny, inspiring and heartwarming new series about thirteen-year-old girls taking on the world. Because you've got to be strong to take it on.
It's a collection of age-appropriate stories for the 'forgotten' girls - the girls who have been pushed up from middle fiction straight into paranormal romance. The authors address first kisses, friendship dynamics and bullying in an accessible and non-patronising way - which is a refreshing change for this age group, who feel like nobody seems to 'get them' anymore.
