Review/ comment:

In this book, Becky is still as naïve and as funny as ever. The format is still the same. Becky gets into trouble after she shops, and lies to cover up, and then the truth was revealed and crashing down on her and lastly a happy ending.If you like the other books of this series, you will like this one too
