A great book for children of divorced parents. Amber struggles with a lot of problems that, sadly, many children these days seems to have. I loved the childish nature of her (being jealous of a girl with a "colorful" name, for example) while she also seemed to have very mature problems for her age.
A book about Amber Brown. Her parents are divorced and she is looking forward to seeing her dad for the holidays but struggles with the option to spend the holidays with her mom and her moms boyfriend. I loved this book, it a great book for children whos parent are divorced or going through a divorce.
This book really have good expressions of feelings, mood, and explains the characters wonderefuly.
Amber Brown Is Feeling Blue is about a girl with a unique name (Two names that are colors). Amber has to make a decision on who she wants to spend Thanksgiving with. Her mother and her new boyfriend or her father that is moving back from Paris. She meets girl named Kelly Green and is angry that there is another girl with a crayon color name. Read this great book to see who Amber chooses to spend the holiday with and if she becomes friends with the girl with a crayon name like her!
1 of the best Amber Brown books yet!!!!
