Amber Brown Is Green With Envy

Always Bright, Amazingly Bold, Amber Brown!

Amber's parents just aren't acting the way she thinks parents should. Sometimes her dad goes out on dates when he is supposed to be spending time with her. And her Mom went to Disneyland with Aunt Pam while Amber was with her dad (not fair!). Then Mom and Max decide to get married even sooner and move to a new house?maybe even a new town. Some kids seem to have no problems...and that makes Amber Brown green with envy.

Paula Danziger wrote more than twenty-five books for children, including The Cat Ate My Gymsuit, There’s a Bat in Bunk Five, Can You Sue Your Parents for Malpractice?, and the Amber Brown series. Paula grew up wanting to be an author? and then she became one. She was the kind of colorful character you might find in one of her books. She loved to play, make new friends, and wear purple clothes and nail polish. Sadly, Paula Danziger passed away on July 8, 2004. Amber Brown?and the rest of her books?will continue live on.
