The Top Secret Diary of Davina Dupree (Aged 10) by S K Sheridan




Summary

Davina Dupree's just arrived in a luxury boarding school against her wishes, but that's the least of her problems. Could it be that the two art teachers there are hiding a shady secret? And why won't the school bullies Clarice and Cleo leave her alone?  Davina turns detective. This is the first in a series of novels aimed at children between 8 and 12 years old with an engaging cast of characters. The book is written in a diary format and lets the reader's imagination run wild as Davina and her friends explore the school and the staff at their school.

My Thoughts

This is a pretty cute book.  When my daughter was younger this was the style book she loved to read.  Diary or journal type books are quick and fun to read so I can definitely see how children would enjoy this book.

The storyline was cute but the writing did need a little work but, remember, this review is coming from an adult and that is not the audience for this book.  I'm sure children wouldn't have any issues with how it is written.

*Note: I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
