“We just want to show that friendships forged here are the real deal. Genuine. Built to last. That sort of thing. For the brochure. Do you mind?”

Their school may be making them pose together for photos - but Minnie, Lena and Alice are not friends. And they have other things to worry about.

Minnie - The Athlete: her whole life has been sport – but what if that's not all she wants her life to be? How do you even start to change your future all by yourself?

Lena - The Princess: she has always resented being in Minnie’s shadow – so when a freak accident changes all of her arch-rival's plans, Lena has a chance to become Queen Bee at last. But is ruling the school all she dreamed it would be?

And then there's Alice - The Really Tall One: Alice has friends already, she's even got her eye on a potential crush - but she's also got a secret. And that secret is about to bound into all three girls' lives and change them forever.

A deliciously funny, heart-warming novel about unlikely friendships and first loves, THREE GIRLS is exactly the joyous burst of energy we all need right now! Perfect for young teen readers of Tamsin Winter, Holly Smale and Louise Rennison.
