Summary

Amber Brown wants a room makeover, not another life makeover.

She's used to changes--finding a new best friend, Brandi...having her old best friend, Justin, move to Alabama...dealing with her parents' divorce...seeing her father move to Paris.

She's even getting used to her mom's boyfriend, Max. The only change that she wants now is to redo her bedroom.

Then Max asks her mom to marry him. If she says yes, they might have to move. And if she says no, Max may leave.

Amber's mom is confused.

Amber is confused.

Next thing Amber knows, she and her mom are on a plane to Alabama. It's time to make some decisions...and it's time to see Justin.

From the publisher

Born in Washington, D.C., and raised in New York, Paula Danziger knew since second grade that she wanted to be a writer. Beginning her career as a teacher, Danziger taught at the junior high, high school, college levels. She received her Masters Degree in reading and during that time she wrote her first bestselling novel, The Cat Ate My Gymsuit. She returned to teaching, but the success of her book encouraged her to become a full-time writer. It was non-stop for Danziger since then. Among her titles are: the enormously popular Amber Brown books as well as Remember Me To Harold Square, The Divorce Express, and Can You Sue Your Parents For Malpractice?

Danziger received numerous honors, including: Parent's Choice Awards, International Reading Association - Children's Book Council Awards, a IRA-CBC Children's Choice Award and many nominations for state reading and library association awards.

Known as a flamboyantly funny and deeply honest writer and speaker, Paula Danziger knew how to relate to young readers at their level. She was vital, funny, and compassionate. She knew how kids felt, what made them laugh, what they wore, collected, read, and played with. From collecting novelty toys that would make any teacher cringe, to wearing jangly earrings, funky glasses and shoes covered with beads and sequins, Paula Danziger had a direct line into kids' hearts and funnybones. She will be missed always.


In Paula's memory, The Amber Brown Fund has been established to bring authors and illustrators to schools and libraries which otherwise could not afford them. Donations may be sent to The Amber Brown Fund/ SCBWI Museum of Children’s Books, 8271 Beverly Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90048.

Excerpt

Life is very strange sometimes.

One minute I'm in Elementary Extension, waiting for my mother to pick me up and take me home...home to dinner...home to homework.

And the next minute, I'm on a plane on my way to Alabama where I'm going to see my old best friend, Justin Daniels.

I can't believe that the woman sitting next to me is my very own mother.

She looks like my mother.

She sounds like my mother.

I wonder if all mothers get this weird when someone asks them to marry him.
