Grade 3-6-Esmie, 11, and her teenaged brother live in England with their widowed dad and their French au pair, Juliette. They want to find a new mum, so they set dad up on dates, using "adverts" in the local paper, without his knowledge. Juliette thinks this is a great idea, and helps them. The arrangements get mixed up, and the youngsters only anger their father. The story is cliche driven and predictable. The writing is unconvincing, and the characters never become fully believable, especially the father and Juliette. Still, the book does show that these issues are universal.
