Summary
Beauty Cookson is no beauty. She's a plain, timid girl who constantly feels inferior to the super-confident, snooty girls at school. Worse than the teasing in the playground, though, is the unpredictable, hurtful criticism from her father. Beauty and her meek, sweet mother live in uneasy fear of his fierce rages, sparked whenever they break one of his fussy house rules.
Eventually, after an unbearable birthday party and the very real threat of Dad's out-of-control temper, Mum and Beauty run away. Finding themselves in a quiet, idyllic seaside village, their new-found freedom and a moment of culinary inspiration give them a hobby, an income and even a new nickname for Beauty. Can they begin a happier, sweeter life – without Dad?

Cookie book review
I really enjoyed this book, I have listened to it so many times. I would recommend this book to children aged 8-11 years. The only this I that could make this book better is if the story went on a little longer. Otherwise a really lovely story! 👍🏼

Brings back tween years memories of reading.
Willison covers so many subject matters in her books. I would recommend this book for 13 year olds upwards as some parts of it are sad. But the story is a good way of teaching young tweens/teens about diffuclt subject matters including: emotional abusive relationships, bullying and body image. I remember reading this book when i was tween and not being able to take some of it to well. But listening as a young adult I was able to look at it with a different perspective. 🐇🍪
