Book Review:
''Lily Alone'' is a powerful and moving novel from bestselling author Jacqueline Wilson, one of the UK's most beloved children's writers. Lily sometimes wishes she was alone, but when her mum goes away, she finds herself responsible for looking after her younger brothers and sisters.

Lily must make sure they eat three meals a day, keep their clothes clean, get everyone to bed before midnight, and most importantly - keep everyone safe until Mum comes back. This deeply touching story explores themes of responsibility, family, sibling bonds, and resilience with Wilson's trademark warmth, humor, and sensitivity.

Perfect for children aged 9-14, this book is a must-read for fans of Jacqueline Wilson and new readers alike. It's a powerful, heartfelt, and beautifully written novel that will stay with you long after you finish reading.
