Marina is shocked and worried, mostly because they are now on their own, and she does not have someone to look after them or to contact. I loved The Story of Tracy Beaker when I was a little girl (I’m now in my mid 30s), and this did not disappoint! Tracy is determined to be the best mother she can be, despite her unconventional upbringing in a care home. I'd have said it was definetly less light-hearted and a lot more dramatised and dark in parts than the book, though I guess that is to be expected with TV.

Sean’s superstar mansion and fancy cars might have been Tracy’s childhood dream, but maybe the Beakers’ perfect home was right in front of them all along.It was great to see Tracy develop into a caring, lovable and generous person after being a deeply troubled child.

She stops at a McDonald's drive-through on her way, much to Jess' concerns that she is supposed to cook them a meal, but Tracy says that it is quicker, and they'll like it better. Tracy is a single mum now, living in a council flat with her girl who loves dogs and more importantly, her mum Tracy.Tracey Beaker has got to be one of the most iconic characters in children's literature and this novel will definitely stay with me.

What I love about this is that Sean, the boyfriend, isn't exactly the villain, and you can see the many reasons Tracy is with him (other than the money) even though they are rather mismatched. I do appreciate Wilson's low-key class commentary, but it can at time lead to one-dimensional characterisations. Jacqueline Wilson has a limited number of leading characters available to her imagination (I would not expect a lot of deviation from an author so prolific, so this honestly is not a criticism), so I knew Jess would either be loud and brash or a quiet bookworm. For books sent within the UK, there will be no extra charge for books up to 2kg which are sent by Royal Mail. It was so nostalgic to catch up with Tracy again and it was a lovely conclusion to the books and TV shows I loved so much as a kid.Jess and Tracy are living a hand-to-mouth existence on a tough housing estate, but Tracy meets up with someone from her past and their whole lives are turned upside down. I adored the storyline, Wilson's narrative style, the recurring characters and Sharratt's illustrations. The new faces made up for it though, especially Jordan Duvigneau's Football, aka Sean Godfrey (did they mention that was his name?
