Product description

“Jane says that if I am to be the heroine of this story, something will throw a hero in my way…”

Meet Jenny Cooper: the shy, pretty cousin of clever, sparky Jane Austen – who has lots of handsome brothers and a vivid imagination! When Jenny goes to live with the Austens, she knows nothing of the world of beautiful dresses, dances, secrets, gossip and romance that Jane inhabits. But when Jenny falls hopelessly in love, who better than Jane to help her win the heart of this most eligible man? An irresistible tale of dashing young men, glorious gowns and two teenage girls in search of a hero, set in Jane Austen’s richly-imagined historical world.

A great introduction to Jane Austen - this is a fictional story of the life of Jane Austen when she was a teenager. Written as a diary by her friend and cousin Jenny Cooper who lived with the Austen family for a few months. It gives an interesting insight into the life of young girls at the end of the 18th century. Reccomended for teenage girls who enjoy history as well as a romantic girly read.
