The Extremely Embarrassing Life of Lottie Brooks

By: Katie Kirby

Narrated by: Charlie Sanderson

Bestselling author Katie Kirby captures the humorous and heart-felt antics of Lottie Brooks, an 11-year-old who is in for one long--and embarrassing--year if she can't learn to laugh at life's little mistakes.

A Warning to Future Readers:

Hi, I'm Lottie Brooks! I'm 11 (and 3/4) years old and this is my diary. Before you read, though, you should be warned. This book is going to include mortifying moments like bra shopping with your mom and your seven-year-old brother, showing up to class with cereal in your hair, watching your dad sing horrible karaoke, standing awkwardly at your first school dance, and so many more humiliating occurrences.

Turn away now if you’d rather not read about such excruciating experiences. It would be entirely understandable and highly recommended!

Critic reviews

"A funny and reassuring reminder that no matter how great Plan A seems, sometimes Plan B turns out to be better." —Kirkus Reviews

"Kirby has a knack for devising situations of tween humiliation, communicated via guileless narration and clever illustrations." —Publishers Weekly

this book is so funny!

I've read the whole series so when the audiobook came out I had to get it. I also really like the narrator, it just was relatable aspecially since I'm about the same age as lottie brooks🥒

So good

The book was very good, but it is kind of inappropriate for young readers because it talks about boobs a lot and it sometimes talks about periods and I’m only 10 and yes, I have started going through puberty but still, it’s a little inappropriate, but yeah, it’s very good like really good
