I was very disappointed with this. There's a quote from Andy Stanton on the book "Made me laugh out loud" - had he actually read it? Very drawn out and longwinded with an obvious moral story but taking too long to tell it!Ellie is a famous child actress (with many films under her belt already), totally ignorant of anything worldly (eg, doesn't know that caterpillars turn into butterflies), loves tea, fudge cake, clothes and make-up. She is eventually brought back down to earth by a brown jumper-wearing, insect-loving school girl called Lettice. The book has tiny snippets of humour, and good-story potential, but other than that, a thumbs down from me.
