Produktbeschreibungen
Amazon.co.uk
Josie Lawrence reads Jacqueline Wilson's The Illustrated Mum in this unabridged four-cassette audio book.
Jacqueline Wilson has the ability to tackle difficult subjects with spirit and affection but without a trace of sentimentality and without patronising the reader or her characters. This always makes her books rewarding and emotionally satisfying.
In The Illustrated Mum, Wilson introduces us to Dolphin, a young girl living in the wake of her tattooed mother Marigold's manic depression. With her older sister, Star, on the brink of adulthood and facing the traumas of adolescence and her mum sinking further and further into her illness, Dol has no-one to turn to. The constant bullying at school causes her to withdraw into her own world and she begins to cope by fantasising that she is a witch.
Far from being depressing or overwhelming, The Illustrated Mum features another of Wilson's classic heroines. Dol deals with the extraordinary circumstances of her life with a mixture of humour and quiet intelligence that blossoms as the situation reaches its inevitable climax. The story is suitable for ages nine and above and the running time is six hours and 25 minutes. --Susan Harrison -- Dieser Text bezieht sich auf eine andere Ausgabe: Hörkassette .

Anything written by Jacqueline Wilson is a pleasure to read. Her unique talent for dealing with difficult subjects without a trace of sentimentality, without patronising either the reader or her characters, with spirit and with affection, always makes the arrival of a new book bearing her name a rewarding and emotionally satisfying experience.
In The Illustrated Mum, Wilson introduces us to Dolphin, a young girl living in the wake of her tattooed mother Marigold's manic depression. With her older sister, Star, on the brink of adulthood and facing the traumas of adolescence, and her mum sinking further and further into her illness, Dol has no-one to turn to when the constant bullying at school causes her to withdraw into her own world, and she begins to cope with the reality of her life by fantasising that she is a witch.
Far from being a depressing and overwhelming read, Wilson introduces her readers to another of her classic resourceful heroines who deals with the extraordinary circumstances of her life with a mixture of humour and quiet intelligence which blossoms as the situation reaches its inevitable climax.
The Illustrated Mum is Jacqueline Wilson at her very best, introducing a difficult subject to young readers with a compassion that initiates an understanding of a very serious problem without condescension or scare tactics. (Ages 9 and over) --Susan Harrison -- Dieser Text bezieht sich auf eine vergriffene oder nicht verfügbare Ausgabe dieses Titels.

Eine manisch-depressive Mutter und ihre zwei Töchter(10 und 13). Ein so schockierendes Thema so warmherzig und herzerwärmend mit leichter Hand erzählt. Da geht es um bedingungslose Liebe, um eine sehr kreative Mutter,mit Tatoos übersät,um das Aushalten der Außenseiterrolle in der Schule, die Abgrenzung der älteren Tochter Star durch die beginnende Pubertät. Endlich gibt Star ihre Führunsrolle ab und ermöglicht so eine Wende. Dolphin,die Jüngere muß handeln. Dieses Buch ist äußerst lesenswert und mit vielen lustigen, komischen und traurigen Momenten. Ich werde mich jetzt durch noch viel mehr Bücher dieser tollen Autorin lesewurmen!
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
I found the illustrated Mum very good. It is about a girl called Dolphin. She lives with her mum and her sister. It puts Dol to the test when her sister Star moves away to go and live with her dad, to look after her mother. Marigold, her mum is a party animal and isn't always good at looking after herself thats's why Dol stays by her side through thick and thin. It's a fun story with romance and is ideal for girls 11 and up. A great book that also made me cry!!!

The Illustrated Mum
17. Dezember 2003
Format:Audio CD
This was a great book and I really liked it. The book is from the point of view of the younger daughter named Dolphin and it's about her mum, Marigold, not really a regular mum. She is covered with tattoos that all have a meaning or memory in her life. She goes out a lot and drinks. Dolphin tries to take care of her mum, but her sister, Star, has gotton tired of her behavior and doesn't care much about Marigold anymore. One night when Marigold goes to see Emerald City's reunion concert and finds her old boyfriend that see was always crazy about and is Star's father. Star loves her father and he loves Star, but he doesn't love Marigold. Star ends up living with her father, breaking Marigold and Dolphin's heart. Marigold even goes more crazy and does something so SHOCKING! Dolphin gets so scared that she calls for an ambulance, even though she knew Marigold hated hospitals. Now Dolphin is alone and doesn't want the Social to get involved. So she and her only friend, Oliver, end up looking for her father with the only information Dolphin knew about him from her mum, that his name was Micky and he was a swimming teacher. " ' This is an emergency,' said Oliver. 'One more' "..." ' Oh, hello. Look, this sounds a silly question but can you tell me if there's anyone called Micky working as an instructor at your pool?' 'No Mickys,' said the voice. 'See,' I mouthed at Oliver. 'None at all?' Oliver persisted. 'Well. I'm Michael. I did get called Micky once. But that was ages ago.' ........ 'Oh gosh, oh gosh!' Oliver squeaked. 'And do you ever remember meeting a lady, a very pretty lady weith red hair and lots of tattoos?' 'You mean...Marigold?' "

The story is captivating. I couldn't put the book down. Fortunately it is a small book, which didn't take long to finish. I love the story; it made me cry a couple times. A good read for both children and adults.
Great book

I think that Illustrated Mum is a really good book, but I think that it can be a little intense, so I don't recommend for readers younger than 10, unless you read with a parent. It was very realistic and I really cared about the characters, especially the main character--Dolphin. It is the kind of book that you wan to read over and over, and you most definitely want her life to get better. Jacqueline Wilson is a really great author.
