About this product

Product Information

Beautiful, blonde-haired Sadie Wilson suffers abuse from her slovenly mother and lecherous father in order to protect her younger siblings from a similar fate. The neighbours avoid her parents like the plague and Sadie has no friends to turn to for help. But when Harry, the kind-hearted boy next door, sees Sadie crying because her father has lost all their money, he offers to pay her sixpence for a kiss. With coins in her pocket, Sadie goes to Paddy's market to buy underclothes she so desperately needs and it is there that she meets Mary Ann and a lively bunch of Liverpudlian stallholders who are to be her salvation. Even though she is rescued by Mary Ann's friends and starts a new life, Sadie's thoughts still return to her brothers and sisters back at home. And no matter how many admirers she has, there's a place in her heart for just one lad whose kisses she can't seem to forget...

  • Brilliant Author

    Joan Jonker always tells a fantastic story whether it be a one off like Sadie or part of a series like the Mollie and Nellie books (which actually have sadie in them). If you are looking to escape to liverpool back streets, paddys market and scotland road shops then any Joan Jonker book will take you there with plenty of laughs along the way (and a few tears)
