When Amelia's mom gives her a journal for her birthday, she finally has a place to share her truest feelings at last Nine-year-old Amelia's mother gives her a blank notebook to write down her thoughts and tells her it will make her feel better. Why would a dumb notebook make me feel better, Amelia thinks. The only thing that will make Amelia feel better is going back to old house, her old school, and her old friends. Amelia does not--do you hear this --want to move. But no one is listening to Amelia.
Ever since I got this book, I really liked it. I read iteverytime i'm bored and it has helped me a lot! It has even made me doa journal of my own. One thing I know for sure is that, when you get your hands on one of amelia's notebooks you'll want to collect everything!

This is one of the most real books I've read in a long time! I can actually relate to it. Some people say it is not good for your kids. That is how kids are at that age, it's something they can relate to. They will not feel so alone. I wish she would just write TEN more books so I could read them all!!!!!!!!
Good luck on the move!

This book was a scream! It not only has hilarious tales about Amelia's life, but it has excellent illustrations. Amelia writes about moving to a new place, dealing with her older sister, and the task of finding a new friend. Trying to get students to write about their feelings is one of the hardest jobs I have had as a teacher. Students can associate with Amelia and her emotions. Use this book to get students to write!!!
