The heartwarming new novel from the sparkling Laura Dockrill,
introducing Bluebelle, and her moving, hilarious take on food, body
image and how we look after ourselves and others. It's a food diary. I
have to tell the truth. That's the point. Bluebelle, aka BB, aka Big
Bones - is a sixteen-year-old girl encouraged to tackle her weight
even though she's perfectly happy, thank you, and getting on with her
life and in love with food. Then a tragedy in the family forces BB to
find a new relationship with her body and herself. . . Tuck in for
best mates, belly laughs, boys and the best Bakewell tart. ----- Love
for BIG BONES 'Big Bones is the book I wish I'd had as a teenager and
Bluebelle is a friend I wish I had today. Laura has written a
beautiful love letter to some of the most important things in life:
friends, family and food.' Linsdey Kelk 'Stuffed with lashings of
laugh-out-loud loveliness (just wait until you read about Bum
Tills...), relatable real-life truths and love in all its complicated,
dizzying forms (food-love, friend-love, sisterly-love, boy-love,
self-love), this is, quite simply, the best YA book about self-esteem
and body image I've ever read' Lovereading
