on 9 January 2014If you think that this book will give you step by step instructions on how to train your mom or dad, then you are wrong. This book is realistic fiction. I lost interest soon into the book, but finished it anyway.

Fun and enjoyable read
What a fab idea for a book – how to train your grown ups! Katie is a great character who thinks she has everything sussed. She manipulates her mum and predicts her response to everything so she can get her own way….until Katie’s mum gets a new man and Katie cannot control anything she does! I love Katie’s dilemma between choosing power or her mum’s happiness. A funny and enjoyable read about families and growing up.
