Product Description

Read the hilarious, candid (& sometimes mean) diaries of Jamie Kelly, who promises that everything in her diary is true...or at least as true as it needs to be. In this book, Jamie contends with Angeline, the school's prettiest, most popular girl (who Jamie thinks is a goon!) and the impending visit of her troll-like little cousin. Will Jamie survive? Will she go mad? Will she send her mom's nasty casserole to starving children in Wheretheheckistan? You'll just have to read the first installment of Dear Dumb Diary to find out!

About the Author
Jim Benton is not a middle-school girl, but do not hold that against him. He has managed to make a living out of being funny, anyway. He is the creator of many licensed properties, some for big kids, some for little kids, and some for grown-ups who, frankly, are probably behaving like little kids. You may already know his It's Happy Bunny™ and Dear Dumb Diary, both series written by Jim. On top of writing books, he's created a kids' TV series and designed clothing. Jim Benton lives in Michigan with his spectacular wife and kids. They do not have a dog, and they especially do not have a vengeful beagle.

a funny book5
Dear Dumb Diary #1 is really funny. It is the diary of a sixth grade girl named Jamie Kelly, who always has a problem, usually something embarrasing about her or her friend Isabella, maybe even a problem with Angeline, the most popular girl in school.
Whatever her problem is, Jamie always finds a funny way to fix it.

Pretty good. Not so dumb, haha.5
Dear Dumb Diary: Let's Pretend This Never Happened is a very funny story (well, really a diary) about a girl that's in middle school. Her name is Jamie Kelly, and she really dislikes Angeline, the most popular girl in her school (Jamie, acording to the popularity meter, is just 7/10!). She has to deal with the fear of being nicknamed, vengeful beagles, and getting her 'future boyfriend' stolen. It's a pretty funny story & it's very realistic. Its drawings are great, not the best but they're funny. I reccomend this book to 8-12 year olds. Also, this book is made by the creator of Happy Bunny, so I suppose whoever is a fan of Jim Benton should read it.

Pretty funny stuff. (Cute, too!)4
My mother brought this book home for my young niece. I read a few pages, then the whole thing. I thought both the story and the illustrations were riotous! Jim Benton may not be a twelve-year-old girl, but he sure thinks like one! I can't wait to see if the other two books are as funny as this one.
