The arrival of the ultra-cool new girl, Maxine, also brings the mysterious appearance of incredibly mean notes in Amelia's locker in this relatable installment of the bestselling Amelia series. When a new girl Maxine comes to the 6th grade, she seems more like an 8th grader. She's super stylish and has sushi for lunch, while Amelia has bologna. Then Amelia's best friend Carly starts hanging with Maxine, and mysterious notes start appearing in Amelia's locker. Could Maxine be behind them? Amelia tries not to think so but then when Maxine comes between Amelia and Carly--it's more than Amelia can bear

Ending Gossip and Mean Girl Tactics
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
Amelia takes on the topic of gossip and mean-girls behavior in this installation of her adventures. It serves the reader in several ways - to teach girls NOT to write mean notes and also to help the healing process to those girls who have been a victim of "mean girls"... of which, unfortunately, there are too many. My daughters have both loved the Amelia books. They are a great segue between the "babyish" picture books and chapter books - and even as the girls get older, they enjoy seeing what Amelia is up to in her notebooks. I appreciate the encouragement to keep a notebook, to write about life in general not unlike Harriet the Spy did when I was a little girl. I am glad to see it is coming out in paperback. I was a bit disappointed to have spent $10 on a book my daughter read in less than an hour.

Amelia books are truly funny and cool. sometimes she makes you laugh out loud at things she's saying about her sister's jelly roll nose (sounds weird but you have to read the book)! she makes you laugh at anything really. And after reading this i went and got all the rest of her books at the library!
More poignant, funny work from Amelia!

AMELIA'S BOOK OF NOTES AND NOTE PASSING is another example of Marissa Moss' ability to capture the agonies and ecstasies of early adolescence. >From the self consciousness that comes from being told your hair cut is not cool, to the rage aroused by being put down by a phony, manipulative "mean girl" and the satisfaction of regaining a best friend, Ms. Moss chronicles every nuance of Amelia's inner and outer life. As always, her writing is accompanied by witty and perceptive drawings, as well as a story within a story. A wonderful addition to an impressive oeuvre!
