My Sister Jodie is a young adult novel by Jacqueline Wilson that tells the story of two sisters, Pearl and Jodie, who are very different from each other. Pearl is quiet and introverted, while Jodie is bold and outgoing. When their parents get jobs at a fancy boarding school, the family moves there, and it is a big change for everyone, particularly for Pearl, who is starting to attend the school along with Jodie. The sisters' bond is tested as they navigate new social dynamics and the challenges of growing up. Jodie, typically popular and confident, starts to struggle with fitting in, while Pearl begins to come out of her shell. Tragedy strikes when Jodie accidentally falls from a balcony during a school firework party, leading to her death. The novel deals with themes such as family, sisterhood, identity, and loss. It is a touching tale that explores the impact of grief and the enduring love between siblings.
