Friends Forever

I just watched the online preview for the first episode of My Mum Tracy Beaker, and hearing Tracy and Jess squealing and laughing in delight as they splash about in Sean's pool filled my mind with thoughts of me, Luke, Resus and Cleo spending time together. In other words, there is an anime-style picture montage of all the times Luke, Resus, Cleo, Mitchell, Becky, Templeton and their CBBC and CBeebies friends hanging out and playing together from 2015-2018. Rosa-Lee on the other hand is a twin sister of May-Li, and Tracy was illustrated a lot younger than she was in the show in the original book. It also makes me think about the times Arthur, Tracy Beaker and Vlad spent together before Luke and the others showed up.

What makes a CBBC character a good friend and role-model, unlike most I know (yeah, I'm talking about you, Boy Girl Dog Cat Mouse Cheese)?
