In Ellie, by Lesley Pearce, it is centred on two girls, Ellie and Bonny. The two girls meet in post-war Britain in London, and though in character they are the very opposite on one another, they become friends.
Ellie is a loving, kind, sweet natured brunette with a sparkling smile, while Bonny is a beautiful but spoilt blonde, who can be deceptive in many ways. Both were separated from their parents during the war as evacuees, and meet after the war has ended and set about making a life for themselves in the glamorous but ruthless life of the theatre. As their friendship continues, Ellie has to face lots of lies and deception from Bonny, but she always abides by Bonnie wishes, no matter how painful they are to herself.
I really enjoyed this book, but found the last few chapters a little unbelievable and didn't find them true to ...

Wow...Alton Towers- For those who like that adrenaline Kick!
Alton Towers is located in the village of Alton is Staffordshire. It took me 30 minutes to get there and I live in Stafford. I know lots of people come from all over the place to visit Alton Towers which explains just how good it is. There is plenty of rides, shops, events and food places here and it keeps us all entertained.
The Best of the Rides...
Oblivion- This is one of the most thrilling rides and I would not look down at the top as you are seated at the top of a huge drop!
Rita- Also known as the queen of speed. This says it all to be honest, it reaches 0-100km/ph in 2.5 seconds!!
Air- This ride is exhilarating as it tilts you on your front and you feel as if you are flying!
Nemesis- This ride has been around for quite a while now and it takes you ...
Along with figures like John Holt, Cornell Campbell, and Ken Boothe, Alton Ellis was one of the premier vocal stylists of the rocksteady era. With his effortlessly supple croon, he completely transformed American soul standards into distinctly Jamaican creations, often so altering the rhythm and pacing of a tune as to make it unrecognizable. The two-disc set LEGEND compiles 30 tracks from the earliest stages of Ellis's career. "Cry Tuff," "Girl I've Got a Date," and "I'm Just A Guy" are reggae standards that have been subject to many memorable reinterpretations by Jamaican artists over the years, while Ellis's covers of American soul tunes like Tyrone Davis's "Can I Change My Mind" and the Delfonics' "La La Means I Love You" must be heard to be believed.
