by Katie Kirby

From hilarious MEGA-BESTSELLING author Katie Kirby comes a brand-new story in the phenomenal LOTTIE BROOKS series!

Pack your bags, and put on your helmets, for Lottie’s latest hilarious diary! She’s off on a ONCE IN A LIFETIME skiing holiday - what could possibly go wrong?!

Amber has seen the light and returned to the QUEENS OF EIGHT GREEN. PHEW! And now she’s invited Lottie on her family skiing holiday – RESULT!

One tiny problem . . . Lottie’s never been skiing before and she doesn’t know her piste from her poles! How hard can it be though?

Join Lottie as she learns how to ski with old and new friends, tries fondue for the first time and discovers what the banana of destiny has in store for her.

Will this be the best holiday ever or is it all downhill from here?

Readers LOVE Lottie
My daughter couldn't put it down and read it in 2 days. Read at breakfast, walking downstairs, tea time, in the bath.
My 9-year-old daughter devoured it in two nights, and all I could hear from her was giggling and the occasional "Mum! Listen to this! This is SO me!".
My 12 year old reluctant reader took this book, read 100 pages in one night and proclaimed it 'the best book ever'
Katie has managed to capture the essence of what this group think and feel in a positive, life-affirming fashion'

4.0 stars

This was so fun and easy to read. Its always a hoot with Lottie and I enjoy reading about her antics and shenanigans immensely. It makes a lovely light escape!

I love how Lottie faces such mortifying moments but she repeatedly bounces back from them like its nothing. It sends a good message to the YA audience and heck perhaps even the adults that you should be brave,confident and even if something embarrassing happens don't get knocked down by it just keep being your weird unique self ✨️

I found myself chuckling outloud a few times which is what I was looking for in this book.
I definitely look forward to reading more Lottie Brooks books as its always a blast!.

• Thanks PRH Kids for the review copy •

Great new book read it in less than two days
Was a fun read just like all the others and definitely would recommend
Laughter and awkward moments overall a amazing book
Hoping there is a new one that comes soon!

Really enjoyed this book, the ninth in the series.
Many highlights stood out for me, the girls go on a skiing trip
The dinner they attend that involves sticky toffee pudding made me hungry, running in an airport in your nightie and slippers was an image that was something relatable, in that when we used to go to Greece we used to be up super early, (never in the airport in pjs) but it gave me a giggle.
Throwing your passport and diary in a bin instead of a coffee cup was a big oops - don't ever do it
Heels on a skiing holiday - not a good idea.

A great book with a great finale.

This Book is hilarious. I laughed out loud a little too many times. Lottie is crazy and super realistic with that hint of fantasy. Her Hot French ex boyfriend and Mean Girl Friend amber all pulled together with Pointy nose and a great big mascot for the bow. This book is super great and I highly recommend this for all ages to 3-9 maybe not the 9's but hey I still will probably love Lottie.

The drawings are as good as ever and very expressive. I finished this book in ONE DAY!

It was an amazing read and I enjoyed every part of it. My favourite part was either pn / Phoebe leaving with Monty and TamaRAA or the ski school that Lottie attended. It was a spectacular book and I can not wait for the next Lottie brooks book by the fabulous Katie Kirby!! Must read :)
