Gr 4-6 -When Amelia's father invites her and her sister Cleo to a family reunion, Amelia doesn't know what to expect. Her parents have been divorced for years and she has never met her dad's extended family. Will they be nice? Will they like her? Will she fit in? Amelia reveals the not-so-easy answers to these questions in her familiar notebook-style journal. The colorful illustrations and chatty writing are appealing, and readers will quickly relate to the protagonist's sometimes-funny tale of life in a less-than-perfect family." -Deanna Romriell, Salt Lake City Library, UT" Copyright 2006 School Library Journal, LLC Used with permission.
