THE BESTSELLING AND HILARIOUSLY FUNNY SERIES FOR KIDS, TOLD ENTIRELY IN THE FORM OF A GROUP CHAT, FROM AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR AND COMEDY WRITER, EMILY-JANE CLARK.

Welcome back to the Cringe Club! It’s Kennedy’s first day back at Hellington High after half term and things seem to be going . . . well!? Even her arch enemy, Harmony Bliss, is being NICE!? Meanwhile, Devon is collecting cringes like trophies thanks to his highly embarrassing parents and Liv is having major boy trouble.

Unfortunately, Kennedy's good luck soon turns: she earns herself a new nickname, things between her new friend group are not going smoothly and she has to go on a school trip to a theme park when she’s TERRIFIED of heights. To top it all off, The Mother has made them go vegetarian (aka STARVE TO DEATH). Things couldn’t get any CRINGIER.

Features themes of fitting in, friendship fallouts, bullying and sisterhood For readers 8+ with illustrations throughout Perfect for fans of Lottie Brooks and Dork Diaries
