Letters to Cathy was brilliant! It was the perfect guide to life for teens. Every question a girl could ask is answered in the book. I like the way that it is split up into sections so you can easily find what you are looking for. It is a really cool book for all the girls out there who have questions about life. Cathy is a great agony aunt! I would give Letters to Cathy 10/10!

letters to cathy is amazing and i reccommend all 9-15 year old girls should read it because you might find your in the same situation as one of the letters and cathy tells you how to deal with it. i bought letters to cathy on the first day it came out in the shops and read it really quickly. this is cathy’s first non-fiction book and i really think it was a good price for an excellent book!

This book looks cool!!!
I havn’t got it but I’m gonna put it on my birthday list !!!!
You’re books are sooo cool!! I’ve read Angel Cake and that’s my no.1 faveroute. I’ve also read Scarlett and that was very, very cool.
Dizzy looks cool. I’ve got it but I havn’t read it. But I’m reading Indigo Blue and when I’ve finished that I’ll be reading Dizzy!!
Then I’ll be on to Driftwood after that. Then Lucky Star, but that’s very difrent to the others because the main character is a boy, not a girl. Then I’ll be on to Sundae Girl.
Love your books Cathy, there so cool.

Sydney, age 10

Letters to cathy was amazing,
everything in that book was a great idea and I think that has to be one of my favorites.

Joy, age 10

Letters to Cathy is brilliant! Some girls have the same problem with the girls who sent the emails and letters published in this book, and those girls who have the same problems know that there ARE girls that are on the same boat as them, that there IS hope out there and that every cloud has a silver lining. My fave chapter is the one on confidence! That chapter really made me feel good about myself!

Sarah, age 10

i love this book and it
help me out with my life
and i die if the books i have read i did not read it help me out a lot so i love to said thx you very
much for write these book

Emma, age 13

I loved this book because I think it helps those who are too scared to stand up and speak.
Over the years I’ve learned that it takes courage to get up and voice your opinion. But it also takes courage to sit down and listen.
This book proved that.
There are some kids out there who may have got in with the wrong crowd, maybe have an eating disorder, maybe are the victim of bullying. It’s peer pressure that makes people succumb to these kind of things. It’s why they can’t speak out.
But these people may be a little closer to telling someone.
Thanks xx

Unknown, age 10

Hello Cathy, I’ve read all your books and they are wonderful!!! I don’t really need letters to cathy yet, but it will come in handy one day.

Hattie, age 12

If you ever feel shy or embarrassed or maybe worried to tell or ask someone about your problems, then ‘Letters to Cathy’ is for you. Not only is it interesting to read, but it is also incredibly comforting if you read a problem sent in and think: “Oh yes, that’s what I was worried about too …” Of course, you also receieve brilliant reassurance from Cathy!

Aoife, age 11
