About The Book

A laugh-out-loud, modern take on the ever popular body-swap story from bestselling author Beth Garrod. Perfect for 9+ fans of Rachel Renée Russell's Dork Diaries and Alesha Dixon’s Star Switch.

Twelve-year-old Lily Mavers and her sister, Erin, do not get on. It doesn’t help that Lily has nothing in common with her overachieving, Grade A student sister.

But after an emergency trip to the oddly named Hairy Godmother salon, Lily and Erin leave with much more than a new look – they’ve got a whole new life. Because the sisters have undergone a full-on body switch and they're about to find out that life in each other's shoes is much harder than it looks!
