About this ebook
Funny, cheeky and crammed full of brilliant illustrations, Jelly Has a Wobble is the second book in the lively Turning to Jelly series by author and illustrator, Candy Guard.
Jelly, Myf and Roobs have an exciting summer ahead. Not only are they going to be bridesmaids, but they're going to see OMG live in concert! They just need to find a not-stupid way to get enough money for the concert tickets first. Then they have to become totally pro street dancers so they can fulfil Jelly's mum's wedding dream. And then there's the small issue of Jelly not embarrassing herself in front of Roger Lovely, which is quite hard with a name like Jelly . . .
Hilariously honest accounts of an ordinary tween girl's life, for fans of Dork Diaries, Tom Gates and Diary of a Wimpy Kid.

Jelly Has a Wobble - Candy Guard

Remember how I told you my mum and quite likes her boyfriend, Julian? Well she’s thought of the BEST excuse for a party EVER!
She and Julian are getting married! It’s a leap year, so SHE asked HIM.
He tried to get out of it.
Mum was flummoxed for a moment.
Then she s-l-o-w-l-y started to take offence.
It wasn’t the most of proposals or acceptances but Mum was satisfied and immediately started doing the table plan . . .
. . . forgetting to include Julian.
It was Mum’s fourth marriage so it obviously wasn’t going to be a big posh affair with a meringue dress, a cake and speeches. Just something small and informal . . .
AS IF !!!?*?!?
She wanted six bridesmaids to suit her shades-of-summer colour scheme.
They were going to be:
And in desperation:
Fatty the dog and Ricky from next door were going to be pageboys, and Fatty was also the ring bearer.
(Yes, you can get cat and dog wedding outfits. If you don’t believe me, look on eBay.)
My annoying older brother Jay
is going to be best man, and his friends – Jock, Brendan and (my ex-crush)
– ushers.
(Obviously, I was only cheered up for a nanosecond regarding Roger’s involvement – he would be bound to see me looking my worst – again.)
Myf and Roobs were with excitement, Julian with naked FEAR and Jay with repressed about being best man.
I already couldn’t take any more! And I’d only known for 2 minutes and 6 seconds.

I met Myf and Roobs in the shed in my back garden. We have been members of the Faithful Club since primary school but now we are at Big School it has become more of a to avoid any accusations of .
Ricky Chin from next door is our only boy member, and had obviously already forgotten about the meeting. Instead he was in the garden torturing Fatty (who considers himself to be Ricky’s BFF) with a digestive biscuit. A fine pair of pageboys they’ll make.
Myf and Roobs were about being bridesmaids because they had never been bridesmaids before
Whereas I had three times.
I let them get it out of their systems before we got down to the serious business of the day . . .
How to raise enough money to get tickets to see
are our band. Even Ricky ( ) likes them and they are going on this year!!
The members are:
Keyboards and lead singer – Buster Bauble (who Myf and I not-so-secretly fancy)
Lead guitar – Archie Triumph
Bass – Dizzy Deakins
Drums – Jaz Jenkins
Jaz Jenkins is the ugly one who Roobs fancies, because she did a mathematical equation to work out which one she has the greatest chance of marrying using information gatherered on their website
JAZ JENKINS
Twitter followers: 3
Height: 4’9"
Weight: 7 stone
Age: 17
Interests: Maths, computers, Manga
We play their album
We continuously.
Right, OK, ideas to make money.
Last meeting we said:
1. Go on Dragon’s Den – stupid idea
2. Buy a shop – totally stupid
3. Rent out shed – bit stupid
4. Have fete – slightly less stupid, but still stupid
5. Beauty parlour, cleaning service, put on musical in West End . . .
STUPID, STUPID, STUPID.
Roobs said,
And Myf said,
Eventually I gave them crisps and they settled down, but then we just stared at the poster for the tour in
