This middle grade book is adorable, and there's even a fuzzy little kitten involved! This is the second in the series, but I read it first, and that worked out fine because the book starts as Allie takes on her new school. Something about Allie's adventures and reflections reminds me a little of Ramona Quimby! Cabot takes a universal (and seemingly timeless!) situation - that of being The New Kid - and frames it in a fresh, modern way. The book also features some heartwarming moments, a healthy sense of friendship, and an honest look at bullying. I'll be continuing the series!

Rosemery says she will kill Allie Finkle the new girl at Pine Heights Elementary because she lost in spelling bee. At the ending, a man tells the solution about Rosemery to Allie and that made the story fun for me because I wondered what would the solution will be at the ending while I was reading ( )

Allie is a new girl at Pine Heights Elementary and there is a girl in her class named Rosmary and she said she will beat her up after school because she lost the fourth grade spelling competition. I would recommend this book for people who like family books. ( )
