-The Blurb-
Beauty Cookson is plain and timid, and all the super-confident and snooty girls at school think her name is ridiculous and tease her horribly.
Worse than the taunting in the playground, though, is her father's constant, hurtful criticism. Beauty and her mum live in fear of Dad's fierce rages - sparked off when they break one of his fussy house rules or suggest something 'silly' like getting a pet. But Beauty's mum adores her, and does her best to keep Beauty happy despite all the tension and shouting.
After BEauty's disastrous birthday party, Dad's temper seems to be out of control. Are mum and Beauty brave enough to leave and start a sweeter new life?
-Summary-
Beauty Cookson is an average 11-year-old girl. Her dad owns a successful real estate company 'Happy Homes' and her mum stays at home. Beauty hates her name, especially when the snooty girls at school twist it around and start calling her 'Ugly'. But when Beauty's birthday is coming up, all she wants is a pet rabbit- which her father absolutely won't hear of. She also has to cope with a day of Skye and her little group making fun of her at her own party. When will this life get too much?
