review 1: It`s 1953, Elsie lives with her nan in a basement flat, until they both got ill with tuberculosis. Elsie was placed in a children hospital and confined to bed for months. Even thou she is missing her nan, at night when the staff are asleep. Elsie would entertain the other children with tales of magic and adventure. For the first time in her life, she discovers true friends including the hospital cat Queenie. I really enjoyed this book :) I like the way it uses the past to create the story.
review 2: Review courtesy of Eva aged 9. Queenie is a heartwarming tale about Elsie Kettle, a girl in 1953, who desperately wants to see the Queen's Coronation. She lives with her Nan in a little but cosy basement flat. When her Nan gets very poorly, Elsie's life is turned ... moreupside down. Her Mum comes to look after her but when Elsie gets ill, she is taken away from everything she ever knew. Now she will have to make new friends and this leads to a friendship with a majestic white cat called Queenie but will Ever ever be reunited with her Nan?This is one of Jacqueline Wilson's historical novels which I especially enjoy. It has a twist in the tale and will keep you gripped until the last page. less
