I remember reading it many years ago and some of the parts resonated, I read Katy by Jacqueline Wilson recently and wanted to compare the two, and yes the first half was an echo but the second was an interesting twist on the story, now I want to read the next again.

Katy is an adventurous girl who is always getting into scrapes and one day a minor moment of disobedience results in her having to learn to live with disability for a long time.

Adulthood does spoil some of the enjoyment and bring to light some of the preachyness and paternalism (and odd bits of mild racism) but overall not a bad read.
