Extrait
This illustrated novel is written in the first-person voice of the main character, Amy Millison, and she tells of her experiences in school, and at home.
Amy takes her readers on an adventure in this book and we see what kind of life a child her age, in a new school environment goes through. The book is a simple story that should engage the target audience very easily. Kudos to Dara Oginni for this book and hoping more lovely children’s books are coming from this young, amazing author.

Prologue
Welcome to Amy’s new life! Amy has started a new school, but nobody there bothered to say, “Hi, what’s your name?” and her greatest enemy there is Sapphire. You think she’s super nice, don’t you? Well, no. She’s not! Let’s see what happens…
Chapter One
NEW SCHOOL
Hi there! Welcome to my life. My name is Amy Millison. I have a mum, dad and a little sister called… Dingdong! Dingdong! Oh, wait a minute; I have to get ready for my new school. I gotta go.
Anyway, my sister’s name is Ellie!
I had to leave all the mess in my bedroom, rush downstairs and then pounce on the table, where my toast and chocolate spread was already served. Ellie, my little sister, was already eating. She always goes downstairs to eat in her pyjamas.
Ten minutes later, I arrived at school. Luckily, I was just in time. I ran to the classroom (Year 5a). I put my jumper in the cloakroom, put my bags away and found a seat… On my own.
It was time for the register. Our teacher, Miss Siller, called out, “Hello, Year 5a, welcome to your classroom.”
“Good morning, Miss Siller,” everyone replied grumpily.
“The register starts now. Harry.”
“Yes.”
What? My name was not on the register! Well, what a GOOD start. I called out, “Umm… excuse me, Miss, am I in the wrong class? My name’s Amy. Amy Millison.” I heard another person, it must have been a girl, whisper, “What an ugly name,” but I ignored it and kept focused.
