First one of the series that I've read. Realistic fiction for upper elementary girls... Definitely something I will be suggesting to moms and students this summer!

Allie is starting school at Pine Heights Elementary school! Not only is she still settling into her new house. She is very excited to be getting her very own kitten! But it seems that the mama cat may have her babies too early! Now Allie has to worry about being the new girl, plus her unborn kitten, the school spelling bee and the bully that wants to kill her! What is a girl to do!?
While I’m a huge fan of Meg Cabot’s Adult and Young Adult books, I have to admit I even enjoyed this book for younger audiences. Is there anything Meg can’t do, and I’m not just saying that because she is a fellow Hoosier! Allie is the perfect protagonist and she tackles issues that I’m sure kids face today, because I remember being the new girl and facing the same ones! Cabot’s easy reading style and comical satire are key components to which I’m sure will be a popular series among young readers.

This series of books is so cute!! They remind me of when I was Allie's age and how optimistic and head strong I was. I really related to her and I miss being ten(: anyone should read for an easy laugh.

This book is about how Allie Finkle is going to a new school and has to put up with Rosemary the class bully while taking care of her new bottle fed kitten named Mewset.

Allie deals with bullying at her new school--trying to avoid being beaten up by the Mean Girl. Fun stuff for adults in this book, too, especially when Allie's grandmother visits and imposes her expectations.

The new girl in school decides that all the 4th graders need to be "going together" and only Allie has the courage to say "no."
