Invisible Emmie

by Terri Libenson

Published 2 May 2017
This debut novel from US cartoonist Terri Libenson follows two girls who could not seem more different: shy, observant, wallflower Emmie; and loud, popular, cheery Katie.

Book 2

Positively Izzy

by Terri Libenson

Published 1 May 2018

A funny and delightful illustrated story about navigating middle school, perfect for fans of Dork Diaries or Diary of a Wimpy Kid.

Middle school is all about labels. Izzy is the dreamer. There's nothing Izzy loves more than acting in skits and making up funny stories. The downside? She can never quite focus enough to get her schoolwork done.

Bri is the brain. While she's proud of her excellent grades, she wishes people would see there's more to her than just a report card full of As. And that her mum would stop bugging her to 'break out of her shell' and join drama club.

The girls' lives collide on the day of the school talent show, which turns out to be even more dramatic than either Bri or Izzy could have imagined... and proves once and for all that the only label you need is 'be yourself'.


Book 9

Entirely Emmie

by Terri Libenson

Published 6 May 2025

The ninth book in the New York Times bestselling Emmie & Friends seriestold from the alternating POVs of shy Emmie and class-clown Joe as they embark on a school camping trip. 

Crushes. Camping.

MIDDLE SCHOOL

These days, Emmie doesn’t feel so invisible. At least not around her best friends and her crush, Tyler.

Class-clown Joe’s jokes aren’t landing the way they used to. Who doesn’t love a good prank? Apparently not his so-called friends, who don’t even seem to care if he’s around.

When their class goes on an end-of-year camping trip, Emmie and Joe find themselves stuck together—and expect the worst. But what happens instead turns out to be entirely unexpected.

New York Times bestseller Terri Libenson is back with a story about finding friendship in the least likely of places.

Remarkably Ruby

by Terri Libenson

Published 3 May 2022

From bestselling author Terri Libenson, this is a story about how there’s more to everyone than meets the eye.

Pride. Popularity . . . Poetry? Middle school.

Ruby and Mia are total opposites:

Ruby is a little awkward, not a “joiner,” and loves to write poetry.

While Mia is type A, popular(ish), and wants to be class prez.

They used to be friends. But now they have nothing in common anymore. . . . Or do they?
