Author Paula Danziger loves to write for and about kids, and kids love her!
They especially love her feisty and lovable character Amber Brown.
Putnam is pleased to present the third book in the Amber Brown series,
Amber Brown Goes Fourth illustrated by Tony Ross), a realistic,
poignant portrayal of Amber and her single mom, who are both adjusting to divorce. And
like the series, Amber Brown Goes Fourth is highlighted with Danziger's
lively, laugh-out-loud, first person narrative.
Amber Brown has conquered third grade with her best friend moving away, and
chicken pox in London with her Aunt Pam, but now... fourth grade! Still missing Justin
and adjusting to her mom beginning to date, Amber is determined to substitute a new
friend at school named Brandi as her new best friend. But Amber finds out that you can't
"substitute" a best friend; one has to accept each new friend as they are and let the
friendship grow. She wonders how she can keep people who are far away from her -- her
dad and Justin -- in her life and whether anything will ever be the same again.
Paula Danziger's appeal is also strong with the young adult crowd as well.
Her titles in this genre include, The Cat Ate My Gymsuit, Remember Me to
Harold Square, The Divorce Express, Can You Sue Your Parents for
Malpractice? and Thames Doesn't Rhyme with James.
Entertaining and satisfying, this is a first purchase, whether or not the rest of the series is owned.” (School Library Journal)
