The trouble with life is it's sooooooo not fair. And the trouble with being grounded is it's sooooooo boring. You absolutely can't go anywhere at all. No hopping, jumping, flying, or parachuting.

Daisy's got ever so much time to think about what she's done. Really, if her pocket money hadn't run out, and if someone hadn't dropped a strawberry dib-dab on the pavement, and if strawberry dib-dabs weren't Daisy's absolutely favourite sweet.... Who knew that it had invisible red germs that are so totally teensy and that Auntie Sue says give you tummy trouble?

Daisy's trips to the loo are interspersed with hilarious musings about the trouble with everything, from her goldfish Freddie, who thinks he's a dolphin, to the school name-caller Jack Beechwhistle, and hosepipes that don't do as they're told.

Now, if only Daisy can find a word to rhyme with hippopotamus, she and Gabby can magic next door's cat into a hippo - when she's un-grounded and off the loo, of course.

Brilliant story

Best series of books for kids (and parents!) We started with Life and fell in love with daisy and just had to find out what else she would get upto so brought lots more. My son is 5 and I read to him every night, we both find the story hilarious.

Bought this book after watching the first week of BBC Bitesize - my son loved it, even I chuckle at a few bits in the book.
Loved how you didn’t know why she was grounded until halfway through which kept my son entertained

Perfect for six year old able reader

My daughter has just turned seven and is an advanced reader in her class but up until now was reluctant to move onto chapter books and novels... Up until daisy came along. These are perfect length and level for a chapter before bedtime. We started with 'the trouble with Sports day' but has now also read the rest. Cute and funny books for children who are young but good readers.

My daughter loves these

The first Daisy book my daughter read came from the local library. Since then she is constantly pestering me for more :)

My observation is that the stories are well written and very enticing for the young ones. She can easily spend an hour with this book (which is a lot at her age), and I've seen her re-reading some section which she liked. It offers her a lot of entertainment, and that is good enough for me.

Perfect bedtime read-it-yourself

Part of a threesome bought to complete granddaughter's collection. She loves them, so I should probably give it 5 stars (but as a granny, I'm allowed to be awkward). I prefer 'Room-on-a-broom' type lyricism, but for a learning-to-read-yourself book, these are really very good indeed, especially as they split up easily into one-night-at-a-time chunks.
