Maisie's Race by Jeni Mawter

Maisie's school was having a Mini Olympics day but Maisie wasn't looking forward to it. She wasn't in any races but she really wanted to beat her classmate, Harriet Tate. Harriet was in the green team and Maisie was in the cheering squad for the pink team.
Harriet had won lots of races and the green team was beating the pink team by 1 point before the last race - the long-distance race. Maisie had a great idea and asked her teacher if she could do it. The teacher finally said yes, and on the last few pages you find out that Maisie is in a wheelchair and the teacher has let her be in the long-distance race. She wins the race, beating Harriet, and the pink team wins the Mini Olympics!
I really liked this story and especially the surprise at the end.

Now Araminta Great Aunt Emiline will be looking after you. Soon enough it was time for them to go. Where's Great Aunt Emiline? asked Wanda. If she dosent turn up Nurse Waitkins will be looking after you. Oh no my day was suddenly turning into the worst day of my life.  About an hour later the door bell rang. Wanda and I opened the door. And suprise suprise it was Nurse Waitkins. An hour later we were eating brussle sprouts and I can tell they are horrible! Then the doorbell rang again. It was Mathilda my almost grown up sister. I was hoping that she was going to somhow persuid Nuse Waitkins to let her look after us. Yes! I don't know how she dose it but she convinced Nuse Waitkins that she would look after us! amazing! The next day Sir Horace was being a sad ghost I asked him why and he said that his old castle was getting knocked down!  This book was a great book. I would rate it a 8 out of ten. You should go to your local Libary and see if they have this book and if they do get it out and try it.
