Louise Rennison – Withering Tights: The Misadventures Of Tallulah Casey (Harper Collins, £10.99) ****
Louise Rennison, author of the hugely-successful Confessions Of Georgia Nicholson books, introduces us to a new teen heroine, Georgia’s cousin, Tallulah Casey.
Tallulah, 14½, is spending her summer in the Yorkshire Dales at Dother Hall Performing Arts College.
What gangly Tallulah lacks in natural performance skills, she makes up for in an abundance of energy.
However, in order to secure a permanent place at the school, she has to pass an assignment – writing and producing a play based on Wuthering Heights.
Tallulah has plenty to occupy her outside the classroom, mostly boys, and this could well be her summer of love.
Teen queen Louise Rennison has created another crazy heroine that her fans will love.
