Reviews

"Peppered with references to her favorite books, Ruby's fresh, humorous, first-person, present-tense account of her fifth-grade traumas, her real and imaginary friendships, and her supportive family rings true...[An] amusing sage of primary-school friendships with a clever pro-reading subtext." - Kirkus Reviews
"Fans of Junie B. Jones will enjoy this work for its authentic look at middle school friendship. A great companion to James Patterson and Chris Tebbetts's Middle School, the Worst Years of My Life.
" - School Library Journal
