When a sixth grade boy wants to read this book for fun, I do too. Amelia's parents separate and she moves from NYC to her aunt's house in small town PA.

Here's a section from page 69:

I like it, its funny and understanding. Meaning some people could relate to it.
Its about a girl that just moved to a new place just recently and she's struggling to make some friends. She's just trying to fit in. I read this book in 3 hours.

Really fun graphic novel series. Amelia has a lot of spunk, and her adventures with her friends in their secret superhero club are much funnier than I expected! Not a must-must read, but a good diversion.
Sarah
This is a digest size reprint of several Amelia stories that can be found in other books, but still fun for the re-read.
Debbie
A collection of Amelia stories taken from previously published editions of the comic. Good for those days when you need a quick dose of humor.
