Overdramatic, compulsive liar Erica Yurken considers herself the cream of the crop at the socially disadvantaged primary school of Barringa East until Alison Ashley arrives - with her nice clothes, dainty earrings & perfect hair. It‘s HATE at first sight for Erica.

Absolutely loved rereading one of my childhood faves - can‘t say I felt as sympathetic for Erica as I once did. This was a genuinely funny book that‘s held up pretty well for something published in 1984. (edited) 2y
