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!

I LOVE Dear Dumb Diary. The pictures are hilarious. I started this book on Tuesday it's Friday and I'm on book three now. I recommend this book to readers on a middle level. It's a highly relatable book.

unicornheartsThursday, December 29, 2016 at 12:58 pmit is a very cool series i am on book 10 right now the books are very short though
The name of this book is Dear Dumb Diary. The author is Jim Benton. The book Dear Dumb Diary is a very good book. The setting is at her school. The time and period is modern time period. The protagonist, Jamie Kelly, she is nice and funny. The antagonist, Angelina, she is pretty and she has pretty blonde hair. There were two conflicts. Jamie likes this kid and Angelina stole him. The other confit is she is probably going to get in F because her dog ripped up her project. Both conflicts were solved the same way. I do not want to give it away so all I will say is Angelina helped. If you are in 6th of 7th grade this is a good book for you. I liked this because it was a funny book and relates to my grade. This book is about Jamie Kelly and her dairy. Jamie was telling us in her diary that her mom is not a very good cook and if she doesn't eat. Her mom gives her a big speech on the hungry kids would love to have this food. Jamie said that she always eats it so she doesn't get that speech that much. When she was walking into class she knew she was going to be first. At the end, it got a lot better and now Jamie and Angelina are good because Jamie did not have a project. When she got called up Angelina knew that she did not have a project . Angelina said they worked on the project together and Angelina wanted to help Jamie because Jamie took the blame when Angelina throw the meat loaf. I would recommend this book to a 6th or 7th grader because this could really happen in middle school.
