Thirteen year old fashionista Coco Franks has finally made it into the popular group at school and is planning to have the most amazing year ever. But then her dad decides to go all eco-feral-greenie-tree-change and moves the whole family to a farm out the back of nowhere so they can 'bond'.
With social death looming and more than a few pairs of ballet flats ruined by mud, Coco's plan is to get herself back to Sydney and her clique at any cost. But it will take an Akubra-hat-and-flanny-shirt-wearing boy called James and a nervous horse called Cupcake to show her who her real friends are.

CECILY PATERSON IS AN AUTHOR, FREELANCE WRITER AND EDITOR.
But apparently, according to People Who Blog About These Things, the above sentence is very dull. And certainly not up to the standard of what I should be telling you on this page."Make it intriguing! Make it Exciting! Give them a Taste of Who You Are." That's what they say. And I suppose they know because they tweet their wisdom to all we wanna-be writers who obviously don't get how this blog thing is done properly because we feel the need to click on their sites and learn the*Secrets* of how to make awesome author blog sites and somehow at the same time sell hundreds of thousands of books.
Which, by the way, is absolutely what I want to do.
It's just not quite as easy as you'd think.
My Review:
I just finished reading Love & Muddy Puddles and I am sure that there are a lot of young women who can really relate to Coco's story. Just when she starts to finally fit in the good group her father decides to move to the country. It takes all of Coco's tricks but, he still will not budge. Her days in the country seem to be getting worse and worse, until. I give this book a 4/5. I was given this book for the purpose of a review and all opinions are my own.
