Description
By: Abigail Balfe
The illustrated fiction debut from Abigail Balfe, author of A Different Sort of Normal, about a neurodivergent preteen girl navigating school life and finding friendship.
IZZY DOBSON HAS A FEW PROBLEMS:
1) School is the WORST.
2) Making friends is HARD.
3) Her VERY TOP SECRET EMBARRASSING DIARY has gone MISSING!
Can Izzy retrace her steps before the diary falls into the wrong hands? Or has its fate already been sealed by a SINISTER DIARY THIEF?
Izzy records her investigation in this Very Normal Notebook. (Definitely NOT another diary!) Expect cat doodles, brilliant(ish) brainwaves and hilarious observations on life as Izzy searches not just for her diary, but also her place in this Very Confusing World.
A laugh-out-loud, big-hearted new fiction series by acclaimed author-illustrator Abigail Balfe.
