We follow Lockie through the ups and downs of school life, falling in and out of love and battling with industrial pollution. It's all done in a high energy, witty way which doesn't prevent understanding of teenagers' worries and fascinations. There's great fun here (has TV picked these up yet?) and once introduced to readers these titles will never be out of their hands.
