    Bunty, Mandy, Diana, Jackie... Which was your favourite girls' comic?They're all here, with their history well-researched to provide a good general introduction to a large topic. The author interweaves the text with her own memories of the different titles and writes in a friendly way which suits the style of the book well.This was a lovely nostalgic amble down Memory Lane.
