Bit of a longshot but by any chance does anyone know what this book is called?
It’s about a girl whose name I think was Binky. The class were asked to do a project on their siblings but Binky doesn’t have any brothers or sisters and was too shy to tell anyone this. I don’t think she had many friends either. She finds an old family photo of her Auntie as a child, who has the same red hair as herself and she uses the photo of her Auntie for her project about her ‘sister’. It had a really nice ending, although I can’t remember much more than that!
I read it at school in the 90s.
Ring any bells?
