Part of an eight-book set published to mark the 85th anniversary of Puffin Books. With a brand-new foreword from Beth Lincoln.

'I'm Tracy Beaker. This is a book all about me. I'd read it if I were you. It's the most incredible dynamic heart-rending story. Honest.'

Tracy is ten years old. She lives in a Children's Home but would like a real home one day, with a real family. Meet Tracy, follow her story and share her hopes for the future in this beautifully observed, touching, and often very funny tale, all told in Tracy's own words.
