She’s back - Tracy Beaker, star of the dumping ground and daydreamer extraordinaire, and what a joy that is! She may be grown up and with a daughter of her own, Jess, but she’s still our Tracy: generous, quick to lose her temper but just as quick to apologise, always hoping for the best and coping with the worst.
Life with Tracy is all highs and lows, and it’s wonderfully described by Jess – the new boyfriend who seems set to make Tracy’s dreams come true, the special relationship between mother and daughter, and their version of happy ever after. Funny, touching, true, the story will appeal to Tracy Beaker fans old and new.
A heart-warming tale of unconventional families and unconditional love; the perfect read for Jacqueline Wilson fans, young and old(er).

Jacqueline Wilson's bestselling, ultra famous and TOTALLY BRILLIANT Tracy Beaker is BACK!! Tracy has returned, hand in hand with her daughter Jess, she's ready to make her childhood dreams come true. Jess and Tracy Beaker are the perfect team. They do everything together. Jess thinks Tracy is the best mum ever, even when she shouts at her teachers!
Tracy has made the perfect home for Jess, leaving The Dumping Ground far behind her. Yes, their flat's a bit mouldy. It's only just big enough for two. And the Duke Estate is a bit scary. But it's their happy home. Until Sean Godfrey, Tracy's rich boyfriend, whisks them away to his mansion, life of fast cars and celebrity stardom.
Will Jess's brilliant mum turn into a new person altogether? And will Tracy realise that her childhood dream might not be what she needs after all?
Jacqueline Wilson is one of the most loved authors for a reason. Her characters never needed a cape, or a special power to be a hero to generations of children; just huge imaginations, a bit of fierceness and a big heart. And there is no hero fiercer or more iconic than Tracy. My Mum Tracy Beaker is a fantastic new story, reuniting readers with a much-loved old friend (and some old enemies. . .) Just like old times, it's packed full of illustrations from Nick Sharratt.

I found this book very interesting as a sequel because I liked all of the other Tracy Beaker books I have read so far. I hope that more books about Jess might be written because Jess is very similar to me and has a nice and fun character.... Read Full Review
I would recommend this book to ages 10 and above. I think everyone would love this amazing story. It is exciting, funny, sad and enjoyable. There is one problem with it… You can’t put it down!
This book (by Jacqueline Wilson) is from Tracy Beaker’s daughter Jess’ point of view. It is all about the famous Tracy Beaker and her daughter Jess. Tracy and Jess live happily in their small flat together and that is all they need until… Tracy gets a boyfriend, Sean Godfrey a famous footballer. Jess doesn't like Sean but Tracy adores him and as if things couldn’t get worse Mum tells Jess they are leaving their flat to live in Sean’s mansion…
My favourite characters in this book are Tracy Beaker and Cam. I love Tracy because she is very funny at times but can also be a real spitfire and she is known for her tantrums!... Read Full Review
