Dork Diaries: Drama Queen

Product Information

I love this Dork diaries book. My favourite part is when Brianna gets to look after the class pet, Rover, lets say it does not end very well. But lately we haven't been getting along and it's all MY fault. Between a nasty rumor at school and me not telling much about my personal life, she doesn't trust me. And I don't blame her one bit. Whenever I try to talk to her in class, she seems down and kind of distracted, like something is really bothering her. I'm starting to worry about her, and I really miss our friendship. Which was PERFECT for me because I was able to work on my special project for National Library Week later this month. Hey, I can even handle a mild concussion. However, what I CAN’T handle is the fact that someone started an AWFUL rumor about me! Welcome to Nikki Maxwell's aDORKable world and the mega-selling Dork Diaries series – now with over 50 million copies in print worldwide!

I don’t know why that girl HATES MY GUTS! It wasn’t MY fault Principal Winston gave her a three-day detention for unsportsmanlike behavior for slamming me in the face with that dodgeball.Rachel Renee Russell gets her inspiration from her own experiences from school as well as those from or own two daughters Nikki and Erin. The older one, Erin, helps with the writing of the Dork Diaries books and the younger one, Nikki, helps with the illustrations. I think that’s wonderful and it makes sure that the books suit today’s kids’ style and taste. Rachel Renee Russell is actually an attorney but she prefers writing books for tweens because it’s more fun! You’re MAD at me because I spilled the beans that Brandon kissed you on a DARE just to get a free pizza! And now everyone is gossiping about it. So to get even, you PRETENDED to be injured in gym class just to get ME in trouble!... Washington, Arlene (February 6, 2015). "2015 Image Winners". The Hollywood Reporter . Retrieved June 22, 2020. And instead of having class in our smelly, contaminated room, our teacher took us down to the library to quietly study our French vocabulary words. Since this was her final day, there are no more new mean letters from her Miss Know-It-All ploy. She "resigns" and awaits the responses from "Nikki's" advice.

Brianna, none the wiser, is happy to see Rover and feeds him breakfast, which is some Princess Sugar Plum cereal rather than fish food. Mrs. Maxwell gets a call from Brianna's teacher, and it turns out that the goldfish Brianna killed wasn't the first one. The fish had to be replaced multiple times. Brianna is not ready for keeping a pet goldfish. She is also saving up for a mermaid. Later, Nikki talks to Chloe and Zoey about the Brandon situation. The Dork Diaries is one of the series that I grew up with. I really loved this book because it was really different from the other books. This book was told through the perspective of the antagonist and it was really interesting to see what they were thinking. There are so many things that I liked about this book. I didn't have any problems with it and I never usually do. Rumor has it that my CRUSH kissed me (at a charity event last weekend) on a DARE merely to snag a FREE large pizza from Queasy Cheesy! Of course I totally FREAKED when I heard it! Not only is a dare like that rude and insensitive, but it’s a very cruel joke to play on a person like... well... ME!

Over 5 million copies of the Dork Diaries books are in print in the United States, and publishing rights have been sold in 42 countries with translations into 38 different languages. [2] Books [ edit ] # This is the first time anyone other than Nikki writes in their perspective, and the first time a different font is used.

Was it because of that...um, well, what we did at the kissing booth, at the end of the party? And the rumor that came out afterward? I'm sorry I made you feel bad. I definitely wish I hadn't done anything to mess up our friendship. Props to the author for also reminding us that Brandon isn't just some nice guy, he has feelings who doesn't just let anything slide. When he said to Nikki" with friends like you who needs enemies?!" I was just like "ooohhhh, she better get some ice for that burn!" Marcus Marcus is a recurring character in the Dork Diaries series. He is the guitarist of Nikki's band, Actually, I'm Not Really Sure Yet. He appears in Dork Diaries: Tales From a Not-So Talented Pop Star and Dork Diaries: Tales From a Not-So Happy Heartbreaker. He appears to be a shy, nice, and thoughtful character in Dork Diaries and is also known as one of the smartest people in school along with Theodore L. Swagmire III. He also has a crush on Chloe Garcia, and the both of them went on a date at the Sweetheart Dance in Dork Diaries: Tales From a Not-So Happy Heartbreaker.This book is perfect for some light comedic reading. If you're looking for a profound children's book, try One Safe Place or something of the like. If, on the other hand, you have an 8 year old daughter that likes to both read and laugh, hand this to her. As someone obviously older than an 8 year old, I can't love it the same way. But he took his job very seriously because he actually put on one of those paper mask thingies that doctors wear during surgery. In gym, Nikki and her friends practice Tennis swings by hitting balls against the wall. This gives Nikki a chance to let out a lot of steam about Brandon. As her friends worry about how she's taking it, Zoey gets an idea and suggests they call Queasy Cheesy and pretend to be Brandon to get the details from his receipt. That way, they'll know if he paid for it with cash or some other method. If it's cash, it was all a misunderstanding. If it was something else, the rumor is true. Nikki is reluctant to do it, but her friends decide to guilt her into doing it by saying she doesn't have to find out if she doesn't want to. She agrees to do it after getting annoyed with their tactic and they'll need to do it in the library to avoid attention. They'll also need passes at the time so they can seem like they're doing their LSA duties. It's dangerous, but Nikki has to know. It is said that she wears blonde hair extensions and sometimes gets spray-on tans, which she calls her "flawless complexion". She is known for sashaying (walking in a strut-like yet casual way, which annoys Nikki). She is a deceitful and manipulative person.
