Book Hero thinking about your next read

Perfect for fans of Louise Rennison! Molly Darling wants life to be as simple as wellies and porridge - but her family is coming apart at the seams, and to top it all off, the chickens are missing. It's enough to make any girl cantankerous. But ... she'll fix it all. Easy, right?

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

The Cantankerous Molly Darling by Alvy Carragher follows the quirky yet relatable life of Molly Darling, a girl who simply wants her life to be as uncomplicated as wellies and porridge—after all, she does live in rural Ireland.

Instead, chaos reigns supreme: her mum is hiding in the attic; her dad has run away, leaving behind only a PowerPoint presentation as an explanation; her sister is set to marry a man who can only be described as a 'ham sandwich'; her best friend is determined to become an internet sensation at any cost; and, to top it all off, the chickens have vanished.

With all these challenges mounting, it's hardly surprising that Molly feels a bit cantankerous. Yet, she's determined to set everything straight. Easy, right?
