''My Mum, Tracy Beaker'' is the third novel in the ''Tracy Beaker'' series by Creator/JacquelineWilson.
Jessica Bluebell Camilla Beaker is the young daughter of the infamous Tracy Beaker, and while she might look a lot like her mother, she's very different personality wise. Jess is a quiet and thoughtful girl who is often embarrassed by her mother's Anger Issues, but loves her nonetheless. For the longest time it's been just Tracy and Jess, with the former moving from job to job in an attempt to keep a roof over their heads.
But when Tracy starts dating famous footballer and old friend Sean Godfrey, Jess just can't bring herself to be happy about it. Not even when she and her mother get to move into the house of their dreams, not even when they get to drive a beautiful pink Cadillac, not even when Jess gets her very own dog. But Tracy ''is'' happy, and for the first time in her life Jess isn't sure what matters more, her own happiness or her mother's.
!!Tropes found in My Mum, Tracy Beaker.
* AbsentDad: While Jess knows who her father is and often spent time with him when she was younger, he's no longer in her life due to cancelling their plans one too many times. Tracy is clearly still sore from her mother doing the same thing to her as a child, and doesn't want Jess to go through the same experience.
* AbusiveParents: Tyrone's mother verbally abuses and neglects him, and has at least once gotten her boyfriend to hit him on her behalf.
* AgeGapRomance: Justine's boyfriend is described as looking quite a bit older than her, and he also happens to be her current boss.
* AlphaBitch: Justine Littlewood returns, and clearly hasn't changed over the years.
* AmbiguouslyGay: It's subtly hinted that Cam might be gay, she mentions not being interested in finding a man, and becomes very close to Jess' teacher Miss Olver. Tracy even appears to tease that Cam is more into spending time with Miss Oliver on all those hiking trips, rather than the hiking itself.
* AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Ava sees Alice as this, despite the fact that she seems quite sweet. However we don't see enough of Alice to see how she acts around Ava when Jess and Tracy aren't around.
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Tracy wants nothing more than to end up with a rich husband, a big fancy house, and a nice car. While she does end up getting all of that, it doesn't turn out exactly the way she wants. [[spoiler: Her fiancé ends up cheating on her with Justine Littlewood of all people.]]
* BerserkButton: Don't threaten Jess in front of Tracy. She's also prone to lashing out when her past is bought up.
* CoolOldLady: Flo, the kind old lady who ends up giving Tracy a job ''and'' a place for her, Jess and Alfie to live together by the sea. She used to be a famous actress, says whatever happens to be on her mind, and is just a little bit eccentric.
* DefrostingIceQueen: The various girls that Cam is fostering tend to warm up after being in her care, special mention goes to Lily.
* DefeatMeansFriendship: Jess ends up becoming friends with her former bully Tyrone by accidentally headbutting him and giving him a bloodied nose.
* FatAndSkinny: Alice and her older sister Ava. Alice and Jess also fit the trope.
* FreudianExcuse: Tyrone is a bully because he's physically abused at home.
* HairTriggerTemper: While Tracy still has a bad temper, she does do her best to try and reign it in. She's clearly aware that she has a problem, and often regrets her angry outbursts; especially when they're aimed at Jess or end up effecting her in some way.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Happens to Tracy frequently, from screaming at Jess's teacher over an incident that Jess had actually hidden from her, to telling Jess off when she was only trying to cheer her mum up with breakfast in bed on her birthday. Tracy always feels a lot of regret after her outbursts, and genuinely does try to keep her temper in check.
* ParentsAsPeople: Tracy is struggling to do the best for Jess, and while she might fail due to her temper, her heart is always in the right place. She's not perfect, even the besotted Jess admits this, but she is doing incredibly well given her background.
* ScatterbrainedSenior: In Justine's one and only redeeming moment, she mentions that her father now has severe dementia. She laments that now ''she's'' the one who visits him in a home, when it used to be the other way around while she was at the Dumping Ground.
* StressVomit: When Cam and Tracy's birth mother end up visiting at the same time, Jess is so desperate to please everyone that she ends up eating some of everything. She's so full that she ends up throwing up.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Tracy is fond of [=McDonalds=] and fairy cakes. Jess loves fish and chips and macaroni cheese.
* WackyParentSeriousChild: Jess is the serious child to Tracy's wacky parent.
* UndyingLoyalty: Jess is fiercely loyal towards her mother no matter what happens.
