Allie and The Hunger Games

My mum and Allie started to read The Hunger Games and see if she could manage to see it in the cinema - Allie and loud noises don't really mix especially in the dark. I had to take over reading it with her since my mum found the similarities between Allie and Prim too upsetting. Although Prim is younger, Allie is around the same age mentally. You can really see Allie in the character especially when Prim is described as snuggling into someone in her sleep or having her shirt tails continuously untucked. Allie loves nothing more than sleeping in the same bed as one of her older sisters and she snuggles right up to you. It's fine in Winter when the little heater in your bed keeps you toasty warm but not so great in Summer when it's unbearably hot. She has a sneaky trick of somehow taking up most of the bed and covers despite how small she is.
