New Thinking Annabel - 4

by Alan Davidson

Annabel's in big trouble at school but when a book on 'problem behavior' drops at her feet, it proves inspirational. In its pages she meets the wayward Betsy-Lou - Case History No.36 - her 'transatlantic cousin'. And Betsy-Lou can help her..... An even bigger thinking challenge comes along when she has to prove to Kate's father that she can be trusted at the seaside if she's to go on holiday with Kate. That she is, indeed, a very sensible person.More hilarious episodes from the life of thirteen-year-old Annabel Bunce.

About the author

A British children's author whose work has been compared to that of Richmal Crompton, Alan Davidson is of Scots descent, and was born in Langholm. He was educated at Thorne Grammar School, and pursued a career in the Civil Service, before turning to editing and writing. His first children's novel was published in 1978, under the pseudonym A.D. Langholm, undoubtedly chosen to honor his birth-place. Currently, Davidson publishes under his own name, and later reprints of his earlier work reflect that change.
