Maddy Yip Series

by
(40 reviews)

With black-and-white funny illustrations throughout, this middle grade series will have readers aged 8+ snorting with laughter. We love this series.

The books are snippets of young Maddy Yip's diaries -- so perfect for fans of Dork Diaries -- as she handles everyday-life madness. Her diary entries span from the big questions like 'what will I be when I grow up?' to anecdotes of revolting cakes, magic disappearing tricks, giant candyfloss-mad dogs and annoying brothers on holidays. 

This is a brilliant reading option if you'd like a stepping stone to Feel-good middle grade books from chapter books like Daisy Fiction
