The first book in a new series from bestselling, award-winning author Pamela Butchart. This book explores global superstar Taylor Swift's rise to fame written from the perspective of her absolute, number one, biggest child-fan.

AAHHHHH!!!! I am going to see TAYLOR SWIFT in concert. And, in case it wasn't obvious, I am Taylor's official biggest fan ever. I don't have a certificate or a badge or anything to prove it. But I know a lot about Taylor Swift. Like, a LOT. I'm pretty sure I know facts about Taylor Swift that even her BEST FRIENDS, her FAMILY and her CATS don't know. And I'm going to write them all down here as I prepare for the MOST IMPORTANT EVENT of my entire LIFE.

Gemma is a Taylor Swift superfan. As she journals the build-up to her first Taylor concert, she's also navigating school, friendships, a dad who refuses to accept why Taylor Swift is the most talented musician in the world AND trying to become a songwriter herself.

Alongside the true stories behind Taylor Swift's biggest hits, unforgettable award show moments, the inspiring times Taylor has stood up for herself and what she believes in, the amazing ways she gives back to her fans, and much more, this is a warm, funny, heartfelt and FACT-PACKED journal for all young Swifties.

The first book in a brand new series by bestselling and award-winning children's book author, Pamela Butchart.
