Harriet Bright wants to be a poet when she grows up.
As soon as...
1: Paul Picklebottom is out of her life.
2: Mr Moody stops making her go in swimming races.
3: She beats Polly Manning to the part of Cinderella in the school play.
4: She finds out just what Melly Fanshawe's secret is.
Until then... she's in a pickle!
Meet Harriet Bright. She's brave, clever, and a poet (don't you know it) with a wholly original way of getting into (and out of) pickles. Join Harriet on her mysteries, mishaps and poetic escapes from truly awful events like swimming competitions.
