Do you like middle school drama? If you do you should read Dork Diaries number eleven I think it is the best book ever!!! It is about Nikki  being sent to North Hampton Hills where her enemy Mackenzie transferede from Wetchester Country Day. Nikki is going to North Hampton Hills for her student exchange week . Chloe and Zoey her best friends are going to South Ridge middle school for student exchange week . Nikki cant solve any problem without them. Nikki says that she won't miss NHH will she? Read to find out. I give it 100% 5 stars and a smiley!!

This show is great in that it mixes in real life issues into the story lines.  Not just a mystery or who done it like Nancy Drew but also a social commentary on today's high school interactions as based upon class, popularity, gender and race.

I recommend this television series be seen by all pre-teens/teens (starting at age 13).  While some of the material is for mature audiences, in this day and age, these are the issues which high schoolers deal with on a regular basis.  And just like 21 Jumpstreet in its day, social issues are presented in each episode, which can be further discussed between parents and children during and after each show ends.  This is a great way to open up dialogue within one's household.

It's like an Ally McBeal during the High School years with a little After-School special thrown in. Plus Delta Burke rocks in her cameos!

Our daughter had to read this for school so I read it as well. It was an easy read and I would recommend it for middle school grade levels. A more current day version of Animal Farm or 1984. I don't consider it as good as either of those but something to read first to more easily pick up how people manipulate language to manipulate others. (Haven't seen the movie yet but plan to soon.)

A school hostage situation is the setting for this engaging drama. I turned off my phone so I could finish it. As with 'These Things Hidden' the plot line could be any made for TV movie, but the well developed characters and their inner monologues are so engaging it doesn't matter. Suitable for early teens up.

I Funny: A Middle School Story is a very funny, silly, yet a little sad. But it still has a great meaning and a wonderful ending.- written by my 10 year old daughter

The story is good.  I think it has elements that appeal to this 10-12 age group.  Too much drama for my taste, but I've raised a daughter, so I understand why it's there.  There are also more eye rolling references than I care for.

This book is needed and appreciated. The close attention to writing from the protagonists point of view is a case study in empathy. You cant help, but root for Grayson. Perfect for middle school.

Middle schoolers have a rough time with friends, classmates, parents, and parents of friends! This is a sensitive look at the confusion of the pals.

What was great about this book was that this is the type of book that any student in middle school will relate to. The main character is dealing with so many of the things that middle-school kids do. He is working hard to find some wins and you will have to read to see what he does next to bring it to the next level as it is something you will not want to miss. The story is a fun read that I really loved to read with my oldest who is almost in middle school!
