Meet the McLarens: There's Maddie, our narrator, the 7 year old 'pocket rocket' with no 'off' switch. Liz, her permanently exhausted mum, who seems to spend her life in a state of permanent mortification or profound apology for her daughter. Dad, Joe, with his 'Northern banter' and inability to suffer fools lightly; big sister, Rachel, who at 21 sees her little sister as both a source of shocked amusement and an audacious personality to be secretly envied. And lastly big brother, Robbie, who at a hormonal 19 years of age has a love-hate relationship with his frustrating little sister who frequently proves herself to be the bane of his life! With an absorbing narrative and spiked with adult humour throughout, we follow Maddie's quest to get an Xbox for Christmas, as promised, but on one condition - she must stay out of trouble for one whole year.
