Bookroo's summary
Charlie detests her new teacher and a dull Victorian project, but her imagination uncovers Lottie, a spirited nursery maid from the past. As Charlie navigates her own challenges, including her mom's boyfriend and his son, she finds unexpected parallels with Lottie's life. Can lessons from history help Charlie tackle her modern-day dilemmas? Dive into a tale where past and present collide, revealing surprising connections and insights.
From the publisher
Hi! I’m Charlie (DON’T call me Charlotte - ever!). History is boring, right? Wrong! The Victorians weren’t all deadly dull and drippy. Lottie certainly isn’t. She’s eleven - like me - but she’s left school and has a job as a nursery maid. Her life is really hard, just work work work, but I bet she’d know what to do about my mum’s awful boyfriend and his wimpy little son. I bet she wouldn’t mess it all up like I do . . .
