About this ebook

Primrose Leary, aged 13. Likes: her pet rat, Roderick; her best friend, Joel; being a little bit different (but not in the weird different sense – she wouldn’t like to be the only bald girl in her class or the only girl who always smelled of ham, or anything). Dislikes: living with Fintan (her moustachioed Dad); the boy-school that Joel’s toddled off to without her; not having her mum around any more. Hilariously and cleverly written, Prim Improper is the debut novel from Deirdre Sullivan.This diary-style book, complete with Prim's signature tongue-in-cheek word definitions, is the smart girl's guide to teenage life.

    A quite charming story about a girl, her rat (Roderick), her best friend (male, and not like that), and the changes moving to secondary school brings, along with the issues of having recently lost her mum and having to move in with her father, who has been mostly missing most of her life. It's told from the point of view of undated kinda diary entries with scarcasm and wit and with enough tinges of pathos to make it very real. Very well written, quite enjoyable and would be invaluable for a teen who has recently experienced loss, or even for their friends so they could empathise.
