Kaley tells her version of history, sprinkled liberally with her thoughts about her new baby brother and a puppy she wants, through a series of essays written for her fourth-grade history class.
Dian is the author of many books for young readers, ranging from picture books to novels for teenagers. She graduated from the University of Colorado, her home state, and has also lived in Texas, Oklahoma, and Venezuela. Presently, she lives in Kansas.
This book was cute. I totally loved the fact that we shared the same name SPELLED THE SAME WAY. The way Kaley wove useless facts into the actual history facts was amazing and I can totally relate to her. I love that her teacher, though pushy, was always encouraging of her. Totally adorable!!
Awesome book! I've read this book twice and laughed on every single page. Though this book is for kids, it's just great! Regan knows how to make her readers laugh. You'll just fall in love with Kaley as you read the essays she's writing for her 4th grade teacher Mr. Serrano. They are definitely worth the read. And parents this is a book you'll definitely want your kids to own. You just may even find yourself in fits of laughter. :)
For those not quite ready for Dork Diaries, check out this fun read featuring an imaginative 4th grader named Kaley. There's even a follow up book, Cyberpals According to Kaley.
Read the first chapter to see what my daughter's giggling about and so i kept on reading. It's funny and entertaining. My fav funny pages: 24, 65, 79, and 82.
