Book description
Jennifer has a diary and Iolanthe doesn't. But Iolanthe does have a
vivid imagination and a gift for writing stories. When she sees empty
pages in Jennifer's diary, she can't help herself - they're clearly
waiting for tales much more exciting than her friend's records of shop
visits and weather. Iolanthe is so taken with the diary that soon
sharing it is not enough and, eventually, she finds something to swop
with Jennifer for it - extra stories to be available to order whenever
Jennifer needs them.
