Ilustration Supposing Books Let's Pretend This Never Happened (Dear Dumb Diary #1)
Read the hilarious, candid, (and sometimes not-so-nice,) diaries of Jamie Kelly, who promises that everything in her diary is true...or at least as true as it needs to be.School was okay today. Actually, it was better than okay. Angeline got her long, beautiful hair tangled in one of the jillion things she has dangling from her backpack, and the school nurse -- who is now one of my main heroes -- took a pair of scissors and snipped two feet of silky blond hair from the left side of her head, so now Angeline only looks like The Prettiest Girl in the World if you're standing on her right. (Although personally, I think she would look better if I was standing on her neck.)

The Dear Dumb Diary series is written by Jim Benton, the creator of the infamous unofficial mascot of the early 2000's to preteen girls with an attitude everywhere, Happy Bunny. That's where you know you're already off to a good start. Herein lies the adventures and mishaps of Jamie Kelly, a disgruntled middle schooler inhabiting a world of semi-realism and semi-nightmarish fantasy whose detailed descriptions and illustrations may or may not be exaggerated. In this first installation Jamie hasJamie Kelly is in eighth grade and keeps a diary about her life. She writes about a popular girl, her dog, her best friend, her mom's cooking, and her messy messy cousin. As she writes, you can see that her life isn't fun and games. Dear Dumb Dairy is a funny book because of the way Jamie writes and thinks. Its also has funny pictures that show what she talks about, which is kinda funny. And don't worry about school, try to enjoy the book. I like this book because of its funniness and weirdness
This book is about a girl named Jamie who has an enemy.The enemys name is Angeline.Angline was mean to Jamie.For example Angeline started to throw meat loaf in the cafeteria.But Jamie got in trouble for it.While Jamie was getting in trouble Angeline was wiping her hands off from the meat loaf.But is it true that Angeline is really that mean. I recommend this book because you can make connections to the book if you have an enemy of your own.Also it is very funny and very dumb.
This book is a good, quick, fun read. It is mainly for those who are in middle school or so I felt. Jaime is in middle school and she is going through what most middle schoolers fear: the popular girl at school is trying to ruin her life. Or it seems to be that way at least. Some people may feel that this book is inappropriate for younger children just because Jaime lables the other kids in her school as "dork, loser, etc." I got a pretty good laugh at some events that were going on because I
I picked this up mostly for "research," because I'm working on a diary-format novel with a character who starts out in middle school/junior high. I was disappointed by the slut-shaming and fatphobia in this book, and by the MC's stereotypical girl-hate. There really is no plot, other than "I'm jealous of Angeline and I hate her but I love her" and suddenly in the last few pages half a bazillion things happen, plot twist! after plot twist! after PLOT TWIST!!The MC's voice is funny (though her
Well, I'm not sure what to think. Add this to the whole slew of 'diary' kinds of books, where a story is told entirely in entries into...what else...a girl's diary.I thought our main character was more than a bit shallow. Yet the story had a few good points, even if I wanted to shake her HARD more than once. I kind of wish I didn't know kids like her. Sadly I do. Still, it's a quick read and might be just the thing to get reluctant readers interested in a story that's definitely not too hard to
I thought this was hilarious...hey, there's a crucial supporting character who is a beagle named Stinker, who has the most amazing grouchy facial expressions ever and actually does eat the narrator's homework. What's not to love?Honestly, I liked it better than my 10 year old daughter did. Different strokes and all that. She likes the also wonderful Dork Diaries: Tales from a Not-So-Fabulous Lifewhich has pictures that are cuter and more manga-esque. (Yeah, I know manga-esque is not a word.
