The Other Edie Trimmer follows a modern girl pulled into Victorian London through a mysterious notebook.

About the Books
These three novels showcase Jacqueline Wilson's range as a storyteller while sharing her signature warmth and empathy. The Other Edie Trimmer blends school-life energy with a time-slip adventure, as Edie's fascination with a real Victorian notebook pulls her into the life of a girl bound for a workhouse, offering a vivid look at courage bridging two eras. Project Fairy takes a lighter approach: Mab's mum copes with change by embracing fairy lights and furniture, and Mab discovers this joyful ritual is her mum's own way of holding the family together. The Primrose Railway Children updates a classic premise, following Phoebe, her brother Perry, and friend Becks as they leave city life for a remote cottage after her father vanishes, with a guinea pig named Daisy becoming a comfort. Each book stands completely on its own, offering a satisfying sampler of Wilson's storytelling styles.
