He reminded us that instead of being graded on class assignments, students will receive one credit for successfully completing the program. Any student failing to do so will end up one credit short for completing eighth grade and NOT be promoted to ninth grade! She was so cute that I couldn’t stay mad.… ME, SNUGGLING WITH DAISY (AND TRYING TO GET HER TO SLEEP!) Although Daisy didn’t help matters. As much as I adore her, I’m starting to wish she had an ON/OFF switch, because… THAT DOG NEVER SLEEPS! I have two daughters. My younger daughter, Nikki, helps with illustrations. I am also looking forward to adopting 3 children in the near future.

I just turned in a project for French class about the Louvre art museum, which contains some of the world’s most famous masterpieces. I’ll simply ask BEG our librarian, Mrs. Peach, to let me hang out HELP OUT in the library during Student Exchange Week. Can the Queen of the Dorks survive a week at the head CCP's new school or will it be a dorky disaster? Nikki gets a passing grade on her french report on the Louvre. Her teacher, Monsieur Dupont, wants to talk to her in private after class. At that time, he tells her that there's an honors French program this summer and he selects Nikki to be one of the candidates for the program. Nikki, excited about the news, accepts the offer. What's more, NHH's foreign languages department is sponsoring the program, so Dupont can get her in touch with the department to set up a meeting with their head French teacher when Nikki attends that week. Nikki is so excited about the possibility of going to Paris, and things are starting to look up for her and her week at NHH. I LOVE her SO much that I’m thinking about making a new designer fragrance for teens called… PUPPY BREATH!!It was so BIZARRE, I almost flipped out! I wanted to rush down to the local POLICE STATION and scream…

Don’t miss out! I LOVE PARIS, the brand new DORK DIARIES, is out now! Have you read all the DORK DIARIES series? Many of the events in the book are based on the experiences I and my daughters had in middle school. Okay, I read this book in one sitting, and okay, the experience was actually still fun. But there were, of course, moments I just found too good to be true. I also really thought it annoying that Nikki was iffy about almost everything. One time she'd complain about her friends, and the next she'd be all like, "I have the best friends EVER!"

I hope I get a decent grade on it since my report and hand-drawn illustrations took me FOREVER to complete! I just got to school a few minutes ago, and the eighth-grade students are already buzzing about Student Exchange Week. With a HUGE global fanbase, Dork Diaries is the perfect series for fans of Lottie Brooks, Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Tom Gates. To be honest, this series was one of my favorites growing up. Actually, I grew up along with this series. But it isn't for me anymore, and I think my 9 year- old self would appreciate and love this more than I do now. Chloe and Zoey come over to see how Nikki's doing. Nikki tells them about the nightmare she has been having the whole week and decides that tomorrow will be her last day at NHH.
