Product Description
From Amazon
Sophie Aldred reads Jacqueline Wilson's The Mum-Minder in this unabridged single cassette pack.
"I'm Sadie and I'm nearly nine. Mum's a childminder, but she doesn't have to mind me. I can mind myself, easy-peasy." But when Sadie's mum goes down with flu Sadie finds herself spending her half-term holiday not only looking after her mum but helping to mind the babies too. There's three-year-old Gemma, two-year-old Vincent, baby Clive and Sadie's own baby sister, Sara. But, "us girls have got to stick together", so with Sadie's help all the mums take a turn. On Wednesday Gemma's mum takes them to her police station, on Thursday they go to an office and on Friday they go to Clive's mum's chocolate shop. This hilarious and heart-warming story first published in 1993 by the award-winning author of The Suitcase Kid and The Story of Tracy Beaker is sure to go down well with all 7-11 year olds and, as with all Jacqueline Wilson's stories, it is particularly good for enticing and entertaining the more reluctant reader.
Running time is 55 minutes. --Tamsin Palmer --This text refers to the Misc. Supplies edition.

The Mum Minder, Sep 8 2001
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
The Mum MinderBy Jacqueline Wilson
This story is about the week in the life of an eight-year old girl called Sadie whose mother is a child minder. Sadies mother looks after three year old Gemma, two year old Vincent, baby Clive and Sadies sister Sara. During the week of the school holidays, Sadies mother gets the flu. This book tells the story of how Sadie helped all the other mums to look after the children in turn by taking them to their workplaces. By the end of the week Sadies mother feels better but Sadie and Sara catch the flu!
This book is light hearted and has got quite a few laughs in it.
My favourite part is when all the little children pinch the chocolates from Clives mums shop. I think it is a good book and I would recommend it to a friend of similar age.
I would rate this book 3/5.

Another hit book by Jacqueline Wilson, April 12 2001
By Tom O'neill - Published on Amazon.com
Another GREAT book by Jacqueline Wilson. This one tells the story of Dolphin, her sister, and her mum. When they were little girls, Dolphin & Star loved their mum with all their hearts, Dolphin still does, but she's not too sure about Star. Dolphin always felt that Star was the favourite, even more so now, and she had gotten used to it being that way. But then, Star meets her dad, whom the girls have never met before and Dolphin's whole world gets turned up side down. Will things ever go back to normal? to find out you have to read the book!
