Amelia's Notebook

by Marissa Moss

Published 1 February 1995
Amelia is not happy. She's been forced to move away from her old home, her old friends and her old school - and her mother seems to think that writing things down in some stupid notebook will solve everything. Soon, however, Amelia realises how much fun scribbling down her thoughts can actually be. In a unique and funny way, she spills the beans on everything - her old friend Nadia (how much she misses her), her embarrassing older sister Cleo (her totally disgusting table manners), and her new teachers (the good, the bad and the ugly). Even when it seems that nobody is listening, Amelia has always got something to say...
