Amber Brown Wants Extra Credit
Amber Brown's in deep trouble. No matter what she does, it's not enough. She straightens up her room, sort of . Her mother wants it clean and is willing to keep her "captive" until it is in order. Amber does her homework, well, some of it. Her teacher wants it all and on time. And as if that's not enough, Amber's got to meet Max the "Gorillaface," her mother's new boyfriend. Amber doesn't want to meet him. If he's around, she worries about how her parents will ever get back together.

Can Amber get out of trouble, get her room clean, and manage not to meet Max?

Give the girl a little credit. She really tries. But how will she succeed? Paula Danziger wrote more than thirty books for children, all of which are still in print. She passed away in July 2004. Tony Ross has illustrated many picture books, as well as young chapter books. He lives in Cheshire, England.
