I was excited when I was asked to read this book because I'd seen it on Newsround and I could be one of the first people to read it.

I didn't really know what to expect because it's Madonna's first book and I didn't know what she would be like as a writer. But I thought it was really good.

It's a story about friendship and jealousy and how girls sometimes judge people they don't know very well.

The English Roses are four best friends, Nicole, Amy, Charlotte and Grace, who love doing girly things like dancing and having sleepovers. They're just like some of the people I know.

The story is all about what happens when they are jealous of a pretty girl called Binah who lives near them. They think she will be all stuck-up because she's so beautiful and talented and special.

The story has a moral, which I think is: don't judge a book by its cover.

Madonna has written four more books and I'd like to read the rest of them when they come out - even though this one is a bit expensive.
