Sean tells Jess that she can decide if Tracy and Sean get married, and she eventually says that they can. Tracy arrives home to find Justine Littlewood in a business meeting with Sean, and the pair put their rivalry behind them and discuss their past. Tracy invites her birth mother, Carly, to her engagement party. She arrives late and has a confrontation with Tracy's adoptive mother, Cam. Jess finds Sean's second phone, and sees messages from a woman that is not Tracy. She follows Sean to a restaurant, and sees him kissing Justine. Very well written, reading this makes me realise why a whole generation took to heart the character of Tracy Beaker. She is so fierce but also so witty. Her vocabulary is superb, she is so obviously an intelligent child yet sadly one who is overwhelmed with feelings of inadequacy. She deep down knows that her fantasies about her mum are just that, fantasies, yet she resolutely hangs on to them, even if it alienates the people in her life who do truly care for her.From 2006-2008, the entire series was released on twenty-four DVD sets that were released as part of a fortnightly-published magazine titled the "Tracy Beaker DVD Collection". I loved Tracy Beaker as a child, and I adore her even more as an adult. I love that I grew up watching the show, and so now when I read it, I can imagine the characters as I read. I think it’s important to remember when reading these books, that us adults aren’t the target audiences, so voting them low because you don’t like them as adults, isn’t really a true reflection of the book. That said, I absolutely loved it so it’s five stars for me. She is never patronizing and introduces young people to important life issues such as love, poverty, friendship, adolescence, separated parents, illnesses and so much more, in a manner that is accessible and completely appropriate for young people.

BBC iPlayer - The Story of Tracy Beaker

Cheeky Tracy is still up to her usual mischief of getting into trouble but also having fun as she is set to play Scrooge in her schools play. With her heart set on her mum coming and seeing her perform, she practises with Cam and even goes Christmas shopping for gifts for her mum.I think Jacqueline has managed to successfully highlight the life of a care-home living child. She has managed to highlight how a child who feels abandoned would act out and how children homes may not be nasty places, but they are a haunting memory for children who have lived there. Also, she successfully touches on the harsh truth of a parent not wanting a child, and she does it in such a subtle way that you almost feel more towards the character instead of processing the thought of the horrid parent leaving their child behind.
