About the Author:

Grace Dent lives in London.

From School Library Journal:

Grade 7-10–Three friends, Les Bambinos Dangereuses, are on the outs–but not for long. Once Ronnie, Fleur, and Claude realize that their rift is all because of evil Cressida Sleeth and Panama Goodyear, they patch things up and carry out their plans to spend the summer in Destiny Bay. To earn their stay, the British teens hire on as waitstaff at an exclusive hotel. After adjusting to a grueling schedule and hard work, they begin looking forward to the Big Beach Booty Quake Party, which is the ultimate motivation for going to Destiny Bay. But then Claude learns that she will have to move unless her mom can come up with a sizable amount of money. A possible solution presents itself in a modeling contest, where the winner will earn 10,000 pounds. Claude's devious ways of beating out the competition bring this already humorous book to the level of laugh-out-loud funny. Other events include the discovery of a mysterious ghost in their apartment, a new surfer boyfriend, and the reappearance of Cressida and Panama. Dent writes a fast-paced, plot-driven page-turner. Girls who enjoy books by Louise Rennison, who shares Dent's wildly sarcastic wit, will find another favorite author in this series.–Catherine Ensley, Latah County Free Library District, Moscow, ID
