Sejujurnya aku ngga siap bertemu dengan Anastasia yang agak sedikit hiperaktif dan gampang ngambek. Tapi setelah kupikir-pikir, dia kan masih 12 tahun.. wajar banget kalo banyak hal bisa membuatnya jengkel, soalnya aku pun dulu begitu.

Yang membuat aku suka pada Anastasia adalah karena dia punya orang tua yang keren banget >,< bahkan ayahnya punya rak buku yang menjulang dari lantai sampai langit2 dan menutupi seluruh dinding. Huwaaaaa >,<

Anastasia is my contemporary (in the sense that I was about her age in 1981, when this book was published), and I can read her at 45 and think about how much I would have identified with her at 12. Reading these books makes me nostalgic for the childhood that I didn't have, if that makes sense. The big "change" (and major plot point) in this book is that Anastasia's family moves from Cambridge (where her father is an English professor at Harvard) out to the "suburbs." The beginning bit of this b...more

Anastasia again is about a very opinionated girl named Anastasia. At the beginning of the story her parents tell her that they are planning on moving to the suburbs much to her dismay. She has a stereotypical idea of what people are like in the suburbs and she is comfortable where she has lived her whole life.
When she moves to her new house, she meets a really crabby elderly woman next door neighbor that looks like a witch. As she gets to know her better she begins to feel sorry for the old wom...more

If you haven't read an Anastasia book you are truly missing out. This is pre-Judy Blume, pre-Alice McKinley. What great female characters are made of. She has spunk, a good heart, she loves to write, and she wants to make sure she fits in some explicit sex in the mystery novel she is writing. (Oh, and Nancy Drew bores her because it's not subtle enough.) Her dad is a professor/poet; her mom is a painter; her brother Sam is a pip. He acts like the oldest 2-year-old I have ever met.

I really like the family in the Anastasia books.

I like that the dad lets Anastasia sip the foam off the top of his beer, which makes her realize that beer is no big deal, so she doesn't feel the need to sneak it in her room.

I like that her parent's have already told her factually about sex, so she doesn't have to sneak books into the house in order to learn the facts of life.

I like that the members of the family sometimes get mad at one another, the parents fight, at times they are all a little...more

This book was okay but not quite delicious as it could have been :) I loved the characters , they were very well done and it must have been a lot of work to shape them so much. The plot was all right, but that's not why I liked the series. The main reason for me was the humor. I couldn't stay still for all of the things Anastacia did. She was witty, smart, and could have been very pretty without the glasses :)Lois Lowry did a great job on the series. But I found something missing that I couldn't...more

Anastasia, si gadis kecil kikuk berkacamata burung hantu, itu kini telah berusia 12 tahun. Sebentar lagi ia akan duduk di kelas 7 ( setara dengan kelas I SMP). Adiknya, Sam, kini bukan lagi bayi mungil yang sempat tidak ia inginkan kehadirannya (baca Anastasia Krupnik : Rahasia Si Gadis Kecil). Usia Sam sudah 2 tahun. Ia sudah pandai berjalan dan – terutama – pintar sekali bicara. Atau dengan kata lain, kemampuan verbalnya sangat menakjubkan untuk anak seusianya.

Anastasia sudah tak lagi membuat daftar hal-hal yang paling dibenci dan disukainya. Ia menggantinya dengan semacam buku harian. Di dalamnya ia mencatat atau lebih tepatnya menulis calon novelnya. Ya, Anastasia ingin menulis novel sendiri.

Tetapi persoalan utama dalam buku kedua ini bukan novel tersebut. Seperti judulnya, masalah utamanya adalah rencana kepindahan keluarga Krupnik ke rumah baru di daerah pinggiran kota. Orang tua Anastasia merasa bahwa apartemen yang mereka tempati selama ini sudah terlalu sempit untuk ditinggali empat orang. Mereka mesti mencari tempat tinggal baru yang lebih luas.

Anastasia yang seumur hidupnya belum pernah pindah rumah, awalnya menentang rencana kepindahan itu. Dari informasi yang ia baca – salah satunya dari majalah, ehmm, Cosmopolitan (aduh, ini kan bacaan orang dewasa!) – bahwa tinggal di pinggiran kota itu sangat tidak menyenangkan. Para perempuannya setiap pagi bangun tidur dengan sejumlah rol rambut warna merah muda di kepala mereka. Di rumah mereka selalu ada hiasan buah-buahan palsu di atas TV. Dan masih banyak lagi asumsi buruk ihwal kehidupan masyarakat pinggiran kota. Anastasia tak sanggup membayangkan tinggal di daerah semacam itu. Karenanya ia lalu berupaya menggagalkan rencana tersebut. Misalnya, dengan mengajukan syarat bahwa ia mau pindah asal rumah baru mereka nanti memiliki menara.

Sepertinya tidak mudah menjadi gadis remaja 12 tahun. Segala hal yang paling sepelepun bisa jadi masalah ‘serius’. Dari mulai jerawat, postur tubuh sampai soal cowok. Masa-masa ini merupakan masa ‘rawan’, masa serbatanggung, peralihan dari kanak-kanak menuju dewasa. Untuk disebut kanak-kanak sudah tak pantas lagi, namun juga belum dapat dikatakan dewasa.

Dalam buku ini – seperti juga pada buku pertamanya – Lois Lowry menyampaikan kisah seorang anak remaja dengan aneka problemanya. Lewat tokohnya yang cerdas, Anastasia Krupnik, Lowry memaparkan ceritanya dengan sangat menarik dan natural. Petuah-petuahnya tak menggurui. Pesan-pesannya tak terasa minteri (sok pinter). Ia menuangkannya dalam kisah lucu menggelitik.

Anastasia tak digambarkan sebagai tokoh yang serbapintar. Ia, seperti kebanyakan remaja 12 tahun, adalah juga anak yang kikuk berhadapan dengan teman lelakinya atau minder dengan tinggi tubuhnya. Dia juga penasaran dengan dunia orang dewasa, karenanya diam-diam berlangganan majalah Cosmopolitan. Bukankah hal-hal tersebut adalah fakta yang sering kita jumpai sehari-hari?

Beruntunglah Anastasia sebab memiliki ayah-ibu yang sangat pengertian dan demokratis, selalu memberinya dukungan dalam situasi apapun, senantiasa hangat dan penuh cinta. Ia tak pernah mengalami KDRT (kekerasan dalam rumah tangga). Pak dan Bu Krupnik agaknya contoh orang tua ideal masa kini. Akan bermanfaat sekali jika para orang tua juga ikut membaca buku (remaja) ini.

Ada saatnya kita para orang tua menjadi sahabat bagi anak-anak kita. Jangan mentang-mentang ortu lalu selalu merasa benar sendiri. Pendapat anak tak pernah digubris. Ide-ide anak tak pernah didengar. Karyanya tak pernah dipuji, boro-boro dihargai. Bisanya hanya marah mendapati anak kita diam-diam membaca majalah orang dewasa.

Disadari atau tidak, kita senantiasa menuntut anak-anak kita menjadi anak yang baik, berprestasi, dan berbudi luhur tanpa sepenuhnya memberikan ‘fasilitas’ yang mereka butuhkan. Sungguh, jika demikian adanya kita telah bersikap tidak adil pada anak-anak kita. Ingatlah, anak juga manusia. Hanya saja mereka belum dewasa.

Sang adik, Sam yang juga nyentrik. Plus cerita yang asyik dengan humor yang cerdas.

Di serial sebelumnya (Anastasia Krupnik: Rahasia si Gadis Kecil), Anastasia dikabarkan sang ortu akan mendapat adik. Dan di buku ke-2 ini, Sam, sang adik, sudah lahir, sudah berusia 2 1/2 tahun, yang tumbuh cepat secara verbal. Menurut Anastasia, itu aneh. Sebab, saat anak seusianya baru bisa berbicara mama, papa, da-da, Sam, saat dimandikan ayahnya dan matanya kemasukan air sabun, dengan tegas dan berwibawa berkata: "Tolong ya, mataku jangan sampai terkena sabun. Mataku sangat sensitif." Hihi.

Sejak halaman pertama, buku ini memang sudah bikin saya cekikikan. Coba deh nih

"Daerah pinggiran kota!" kata Anastasia. "Kita akan pindah ke pinggiran kota? Aku tak percaya. Aku tak percaya Ayah dan Ibu tega melakukan itu padaku. Aku akan bunuh diri. Setelah menghabiskan puding cokelat ini, aku akan melompat dari jendela."

"Kita tinggal di lantai satu," ibunya mengingatkan Anastasia. "Dan kamu sudah melompat dari jendelamu selama bertahun-tahun. Pertama kali kamu melakukan itu saat kamu berusia tiga tahun dan tidak mau tidur siang lagi."

"Ya," kata Anastasia, sambil mengingat. "Ibu kira aku diculik, ketika Ibu masuk ke kamarku untuk membangunkan aku dan aku tidak ada. Sebenarnya aku berada di luar, sedang memetiki semua bunga tulip Ibu."

Wakakakakakkk!

Yup. Kehadiran sang adik memang membuat apartemen tempat tinggal Anastasia dan keluarganya semakin tak memadai. Orangtua Anastasia pun memutuskan untuk mencari rumah baru yang lebih luas di pinggiran kota. Inilah yang berusaha ditolak mati-matian oleh Anastasia. Maka, Anastasia pun membuat berbagai alasan pada ayah dan ibunya agar mereka tak jadi pindah. Namun, sekali merdeka, eh sekali pindah tetap pindah.

Sang ayah pun menyodorkan tawaran, mau rumah seperti apa. Sang ibu ingin ada ruang untuk melukis, ayahnya sendiri ingin ada ruang dengan rak-rak buku. Anastasia sendiri ingin rumah yang bermenara! Eh, ternyata mereka mendapatkan rumah dengan menara.

Selesai? Tidak. Sebab Anastasia harus beradaptasi dengan lingkungan barunya. Di satu sisi ia harus tetap menjalin hubungan dengan teman-teman lamanya yang salah paham terhadap dirinya. Di sinilah kisah segar gadis 12 tahun bertinggi 170 cm ini berputar.

Yang juga menarik dari buku ini, nampaknya Lowry ingin mengajarkan remaja beberapa istilah bahasa, yang mungkin sering didengar namun tak tahu arti pastinya. Dia menyelipkannya dalam dialog Anastasia dengan ayahnya, seperti istilah "asumsi". Juga mengedukasi remaja untuk menulis. Seperti buku pertama, Lowry juga menyimpan ending yang menarik dan emosional di akhir seri kedua ini.(less)

I love Anastasia Krupnik!
In the second book, Anastasia is 12 years old. Her and her family, including now 2 1/2 year old Sam, are moving to the suburbs. Anastasia hates the idea of the suburbs; women with pink curlers, TV dinners, and plastic bowls of fruit everywhere.
Not surprisingly, she realizes before too long that a lot of her assumptions were wrong. She even makes a few friends before school starts, not even minding that most of them are senior citizens from the center down the street.

Someone in a class recommended this series due to my love of the Ramona titles, and I can see why. Like Ramona, Anastasia's a character to whom young girls of that age can relate; she's navigating the same concerns that many her age have. By reading about her struggles, kids learn how to deal with their own.

The Krupniks are moving to the suburbs, so she's getting used to a new place, finding new friends, missing old friends. There's humor, intelligence, and just a hint of tween drama.

Anastasia Again! is funny story about a preteen who struggles with her family's move from Cambridge to the Boston suburbs. Having lived in Boston during grad school, I appreciate the plays on stereotypes about Cantabrigians v. suburbanites even more now than I did when I first read this book as a kid. Lois Lowry nails the pain of pre-adolescent awkwardness in a totally true and charming way, and manages to be hilarious at the same time.

I think I found this one even more enjoyable than the first. The incident at the senior drop-in center had me laughing out loud, and the way the title character incorporated the events of her own life into her own mystery novel was also good for a chuckle. The strength of this series is the great balancing act between the humdrum quotidian (choosing wallpaper patterns for a new house in the suburbs) and the delightfully implausible (an eccentric shut-in neighbor named Gertrude Stein).

I have always been incredibly jealous of Anastasia's life, ever since I was her age. Her parents treat her like a person and respect her input, her father teaches at Harvard, she lives in the Boston area, and now she has a house with a tower bedroom! (I do realize that Anastasia is fictional.)

Anastasia is back with a big problem: her parents are forcing her to move. To the *suburbs*!! It's going to be perfectly horrible. She has to leave her best friend behind and then there's that issue with Robert Giannini--why is he not-so-weird all of a sudden? Anastasia soon finds out that things aren't always as they appear; and maybe, just maybe, it's not the end of the world after all.

I loved the Anastasia books as a young girl and really appreciated Ms. Lowry's distinct writing style. Everyone's a bit too clever with their dialogue sometimes, but I related to Anastasia as a slightly bookish but similarly naïve girl who wants to be a writer.

About Lois Lowry

Taken from Lowry's website:
"I’ve always felt that I was fortunate to have been born the middle child of three. My older sister, Helen, was very much like our mother: gentle, family-oriented, eager to please. Little brother Jon was the only boy and had interests that he shared with Dad; together they were always working on electric trains and erector sets; and later, when Jon was older, they always...more Taken from Lowry's website:
"I’ve always felt that I was fortunate to have been born the middle child of three. My older sister, Helen, was very much like our mother: gentle, family-oriented, eager to please. Little brother Jon was the only boy and had interests that he shared with Dad; together they were always working on electric trains and erector sets; and later, when Jon was older, they always seemed to have their heads under the raised hood of a car. That left me in-between, and exactly where I wanted most to be: on my own. I was a solitary child who lived in the world of books and my own vivid imagination.

Because my father was a career military officer - an Army dentist - I lived all over the world. I was born in Hawaii, moved from there to New York, spent the years of World War II in my mother’s hometown: Carlisle, Pennsylvania, and from there went to Tokyo when I was eleven. High school was back in New York City, but by the time I went to college (Brown University in Rhode Island), my family was living in Washington, D.C.

I married young. I had just turned nineteen - just finished my sophomore year in college - when I married a Naval officer and continued the odyssey that military life requires. California. Connecticut (a daughter born there). Florida (a son). South Carolina. Finally Cambridge, Massachusetts, when my husband left the service and entered Harvard Law School (another daughter; another son) and then to Maine - by now with four children under the age of five in tow. My children grew up in Maine. So did I. I returned to college at the University of Southern Maine, got my degree, went to graduate school, and finally began to write professionally, the thing I had dreamed of doing since those childhood years when I had endlessly scribbled stories and poems in notebooks.

After my marriage ended in 1977, when I was forty, I settled into the life I have lived ever since. Today I am back in Cambridge, Massachusetts, living and writing in a house dominated by a very shaggy Tibetan Terrier named Bandit. For a change of scenery Martin and I spend time in Maine, where we have an old (it was built in 1768!) farmhouse on top of a hill. In Maine I garden, feed birds, entertain friends, and read...

My books have varied in content and style. Yet it seems that all of them deal, essentially, with the same general theme: the importance of human connections. A Summer to Die, my first book, was a highly fictionalized retelling of the early death of my sister, and of the effect of such a loss on a family. Number the Stars, set in a different culture and era, tells the same story: that of the role that we humans play in the lives of our fellow beings.

The Giver - and Gathering Blue, and the newest in the trilogy: Messenger - take place against the background of very different cultures and times. Though all three are broader in scope than my earlier books, they nonetheless speak to the same concern: the vital need of people to be aware of their interdependence, not only with each other, but with the world and its environment.

My older son was a fighter pilot in the United States Air Force. His death in the cockpit of a warplane tore away a piece of my world. But it left me, too, with a wish to honor him by joining the many others trying to find a way to end conflict on this very fragile earth.
I am a grandmother now. For my own grandchildren - and for all those of their generation - I try, through writing, to convey my passionate awareness that we live intertwined on this planet and that our future depends upon our caring more, and doing more, for one another."(less)
