I was very impressed by how this novel captures the struggles of early motherhood – from the simple things of trying to pack a nappy bag and get babies ready to go for a walk to the massive, massive psychological change you go through when you become a mother. One of Jacqueline’s most successful and enduring creations has been the famous Tracy Beaker, who first appeared in 1991 in The Story of Tracy Beaker. At the first run of the talent show, the judges panel is made up of students and it is treated like a popularity contest.

Jacqueline Wilson was born in Bath in 1945, and spent her childhood in Kingston-on-Thames, Surrey, where she still lives today. Danny and her mother went out before she was born but when Destiny was born, Danny wasnt around anymore. The next day, Kate confesses the reason she's suddenly become insistent on Danny Kilman knowing about Destiny is she's worried she might be ill and wants to know Destiny will be looked after if the worst happens. It’s true that horror feels less gripping on the page than on the screen, and it took King’s “IT” to scare me out of my skin for good, so if this novel is just as terrifying I will welcome it into my personal gallery of creepy masterpieces . Destiny shows her awesome singing talent when she sings Danny's song "Destiny" and is given the last act, being the best talent.It is all about living to your own wits the kids understand freindship more and the parents well they just ARGUE!

I do love a story based around old myths, tales or legends so was very intrigued when I discovered Little Darlings is just that.

We all want to protect our children from the harsh side of the real world for as long as we can, which is why I think horror movie makers want to thrust them into all that darkness and ugliness and dial it up to 11, all designed to invoke a visceral reaction.
