Book description
When Geena, Amber and Jazz's school is desperate for funds, the girls'
formidable young auntie steps in with a fantastic idea for a fundraising
Bollywood party. Swept up in the plans, the girls plot to deliver a real
Bollywood actress for a live appearance. Sure their aunt will be
thrilled with their plan, they've only got to overcome the fact that
their would-be guest of honour is a penniless, faded recluse with a foul
temper who decamps to their house and insists on being treated like a
star. A superbly entertaining sequel to Bindi Babes by an up-and-coming
star of our own list.

for children's fiction. She has had two novels for a slightly older
age group published by Collins, and we are looking forward to
establishing her in a younger market on our list. Her first book for
Transworld, ANNIE'S GAME, was published in Corgi Yearling in April
1999: 'A terrific story' The Observer,
'Dhami brings a light touch to the seriousness of the issues thrown
up in this novel and to its resolution' Books for Keeps
