It’s a tight squeeze as usual in the Butterfield house, and with baby Will’s stuff taking up all the room it’s getting even worse. Lucinda’s house has ten times more room for her family than the squished Butterfields have! Mattie’s Worry List gets bigger when Mum seems to be unhappy, and wants to move house. But moving house would mean moving schools – Mattie’s worst Worry List come true!
Before writing her first novel, Chris taught English and Drama for many years in secondary schools. She also worked at the Minack, the open-air theatre on the cliffs near Land’s End, but now writes full-time.
Chris has won a number of awards including Young Minds, the Lancashire Book Award, the Lincolnshire Young People’s Book Award, the KYBA, and she has been shortlisted twice for Queen of Teen.
She lives in the far west of Cornwall with her husband.
