Review:
Rent a Bridesmaid is a heartwarming and charming story from the beloved Jacqueline Wilson, illustrated by Nick Sharratt. Tilly is a sensible, kind-hearted nine-year-old who has a gorgeous pink designer bridesmaid's dress that she's barely worn. Determined to see it used, she places an advertisement offering to rent herself out as a bridesmaid — complete with the beautiful dress and matching accessories. When a bride-to-be named Iris May Bloomfield responds, Tilly's dream of attending a real wedding comes true. But along the way, she discovers that family, friendship, and following your heart matter more than any fancy dress. Full of Wilson's trademark warmth, wit, and emotional depth, this book is perfect for readers aged 7–11 who love stories about kindness, belonging, and making your own happiness.
