Description
Perfect for younger fans of the Dork Diaries and Story Thieves series, Ruby Starr is an older Junie B. Jones with a big imagination and a love of reading!
Ruby Starr has always loved books. She loves them so much that her favorite days of school are when her lunchtime book club, the Unicorns, eat. She also has the best friends ever- some real, some fictional- and that's just the way she likes it.
But then one dark and stormy night (okay, it was the morning of a sunny day), Charlotte, a new student, comes to town. Ruby knows from her books that a new character probably means trouble...and she's right! Charlotte wants to turn the book club into a drama club, and she's spending a lot of time with Ruby's best friend.
Ruby's going to have to use her imagination and love of reading to solve this big problem before she loses her school friends and her book friends for good.
Advance Praise
"Fans of Junie B. Jones will enjoy this work for its authentic look at middle school friendship. A great companion to James Patterson and Chris Tebbetts’s Middle School, the Worst Years of My Life." -School Library Journal
"Peppered with references to her favorite books, Ruby's fresh, humorous, first-person, present-tense account of her fifth-grade traumas, her real and imaginary friendships, and her supportive family rings true...[An] amusing sage of primary-school friendships with a clever pro-reading subtext." -Kirkus Reviews
