What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

Take a peek inside the diaries of Jamie Kelly! She’s cool (sometimes), nice (mostly), and funny (always). Kid-friendly humor & art, along w/JKBenton’s signature style make this series a standout!Read the hilarious, candid (& sometimes mean) diaries of Jamie Kelly, who promises that everything in her diary is true…or at least as true as it needs to be. In this book, Jamie contends with Angeline, the school’s prettiest, most popular girl (who Jamie thinks is a goon!) and the impending visit of her troll-like little cousin. Will Jamie survive? Will she go mad? Will she send her mom’s nasty casserole to starving children in Wheretheheckistan? You’ll just have to read the first installment of Dear Dumb Diary to find out!
