How To Get What You Want by Peony Pinker
by Jenny Alexander
Everyone in Peony Pinker's family wants something. Her dad, a sports reporter on the local paper, wants to get out of doing the problem page while the agony aunt is missing; her mum wants to stop working at the garden centre where all the plants keep dying; and her big sister Primrose wants to be called Annabel. What Peony wants most in the world - even more than she wants a dog - is to stop Primrose's nasty new best friend Bianca from being horrible to her. When Mr Kaminski next door tells them the secret of how to get what you want, Peony decides it's time to put a stop to Bianca at last. But can she get what she really wants?
