'Kids love Harriet! Harriet Clare is an amazing book. It makes you want to turn the page and see what happens next...I loved the book, I can't wait for the next one! - Maya, age 8 The Harriet Clare series is unique in newly independent children's fiction. You the reader become Harriet's new bestie. Harriet will ask you for advice, to draw a picture of your own BFF, or even to design a cool skateboard! A visual feast of fun, the Harriet Clare books draw in even the most reluctant of readers with charming illustrations, illustrated text and sketching activities. Harriet also encourages problem-solving, self-understanding and empathy in the reader. Harriet Clare is set apart from similar books on the market by its interactivity with the reader - Harriet asks children to participate in writing her diary and requests that the reader colour/draw/ write in the book! Author Louise Park has total book sales of over 3 million copies, and illustrator Marlene Monterrubio has a bright and fun illustration style perfected after two university degrees. Harriet is laugh-out-loud funny. And it's a hoot to read aloud.

'Her everyday adventures will captivate children who will be able to relate to every big challenge she faces.' (Publication summary)
