Feely’s mum is a counsellor – she helps sad and angry people with their problems.

When she takes Feely to work one day, Feely decides that she could do this job just as well as her mum…

Part of our series of ‘handwritten’ diary entries about the laugh-out-loud exploits of loveable (and feisty) Feely Tonks, this quick-read is great for encouraging girls who’re not in the habit of reading to pick up a book.

"The children were very excited by the books and loved reading them. They were particularly popular with our Year 6 children who are heading off to secondary school, as they generated discussions about growing up and friendship problems. Excellent value for money."

"I read this book in about 15/20 minutes. I really enjoyed it. I thought this story had a good and funny ending. I would like to read the other books in the series."

Phoebe, aged 8

"The whole story is written in a funny girly way with sarcasm and good humour. It's a great book for kids who struggle with reading because it's rather short and not very complicated. The black and white illustration are lovely and show exactly what Feely thinks when she writes her diary!"

Parent, Toppsta

"I read Feely's Magic Diary to my Year 2 class... I enjoyed the story and from a teaching point of view felt it was a great book to tackle issues like bullying and persistent upset at school... I love the layout of the book as if it were an actual diary and think it would be beneficial to use during lessons to help with writing a diary extract, using examples of texts to demonstrate the content and features of a diary entry... The length of the book encourages children to want to read as it is easily achievable."
