«Fruit and Nutcase» is the children's and young adult novel by Jean Ure, published by HarperCollins Children's Fiction in hardback (160 pages, in English).
Mandy Small has trouble writing, so her teacher Cat suggests she record her life on a tape. Between laughs and emotional moments, she tells of her daily life with loving but chaotic parents —her father looks like Elvis— and the bullying by Tracey Bigg at school. Mandy fears becoming a real 'fruit and nutcase'.
Third instalment of Jean Ure's Diary series, illustrated by Mick Brownfield and originally published in 2002.
Recommended for readers aged 9 to 12 who enjoy school stories full of humour.
