About this deal

Highlighted in one scene where their foster father tells them that, when they leave the Foundling Hospital, Hetty will go to work as a housemaid and Gideon as a soldier or sailor. It's implied that this happened to Gemma in Best Friends, who references 'the time I thought I could make it home from McDonald's after two large cokes and a milkshake without going to the loo. To some extent, Jem towards Hetty in Emerald Star, as Hetty has realised that she's now lost any potential romantic feelings she might have had towards him.

Also, Dixie in "The Diamond Girls"; once she's settled into her new flat a bit, and she has lost one of her socks, and she is unaware of where to find a clean pair, she decides to go without, and she also goes without trainers, because they rub her feet. Jacqueline Wilson wrote her first novel when she was nine years old, and she has been writing ever since. Tracy Beaker, who was abandoned by her mother, may count as well, and Allison in The Other Side whose mother is mentally ill and goes into hospital at the start of the book. There's little chance that you'll read the section about the blindfold game and not at least suspect that Will's a sadist.Floss is very close with her father, Charlie, so much so that her mother seems jealous at times of their bond. Monochrome Casting: All of her lead characters are white, as are most of the supporting characters, with the occasional Token Minority.

Cloud Cuckoolander - Lampshaded in Opal Plumstead when Cassie daydreams about being the wife of a man twice her age that she's been out with, and Opal tells her that she is living in "cloud-cuckoo-land". Occasionally she also sometimes puts Jayni into the role of an adult, with Jayni describing her as trying to make her be the mum. She is unable to see that he is not the person she thinks he is, and that to him their relationship is just a casual fling. In Waiting For the Sky to Fall, Katherine is her father's favourite, but this has the negative effect of causing him to put her under intense pressure to do well in her exams. The shift to Calender Hall also introduces a new cast of characters and stories that are original to the show.This may be subconscious, as Laura is a teenager around the same time as Wilson (they were both fourteen in 1960, when the story takes place). Broken Pedestal: Phoebe in The Primrose Railway Children looks up to her dad, but she becomes disillusioned and angry when she finds out he's in prison and doesn't even want to visit him. Be Careful What You Wish For: At the end of Rose Rivers, it is being arranged for Rose to go to boarding school and get the education she wanted, but at the cost of losing her family.

Persecuted Intellectuals: Jessica from Wave Me Goodbye is particularly intelligent, but also precocious. Elsa in The Bed and Breakfast Star, Ruby in Double Act, and Tracy Beaker all become friends with groups of boys this way.Fiery Redhead - Charlie and Lottie in The Lottie Project, Hetty Feather, and Vicky in Vicky Angel all count. When they hear about Frankie and Sally's kiss on New Years, they all want them to kiss again so they can watch.

Averted in The Butterfly Club where triplets Tina, Maddie and Phil are not identical because Tina is considerably smaller than the other two. Most on the time this isn't deliberate, though Jayni mentions that Nikki has often stayed out without warning, leaving her to look after her brother.National Stereotypes: Referenced and averted in Secrets when India says that you might think her au pair, who's Australian, would be cheerful, suntanned and outgoing.
