In
this book, the main character, Nathalia
Buttface, is forced to live with her embarrassing Dad and her sometimes
supportive Mum.
They have just moved to a different town (in their shameful
campervan, the Atomic Dustbin) and now she must start a new school and make new
friends.
She thinks this a chance to start again without her Dad embarrassing
her, but she still has the same silly last name and the same embarrassing Dad.
This
book is full of hysterical stories of how her dad embarrasses her and how she
tries to overcome her shame. I found it an easy read and I recommend this
hilarious book to girls aged 10 – 12.
