Summary: Great first novel
Review: A friend passed on a galley of Millicent Min a couple of months ago after she finished reading it. I thoroughly enjoyed the book. Millicent is charming. She's obscenely smart (she is a girl genius after all), yet dumb (mostly about how friendships and relationship work) in a way that doesn't feel contrived. In fact, a number of parts of the book stirred up memories of my own childhood, which allowed me to laugh with her as well as laugh at her. Overall, this is an great first effort by Ms. Yee, and I hope that she continues writing!

Summary: Millicent made my day!
Review: I just loved this book! All about Millicent and her very "special" - albeit sometimes clueless - view on life and relationships as a very brilliant 11-year-old. I laughed out loud at least every few pages! This book gives a voice to the young and old struggling to make sense out of life's challenges! A lovely story for all ages! Thank you, Lisa, what a joy to share this with you!

Summary: Smart Book!
Review: I know a lot of people like Millicent Min. Even though they may seem smart and confident, they are just regular kids inside. At first I thought Millie was stuck up. Then, I really got to like her. What I really liked about this book was how funny it was. It made me laugh out loud.

Summary: Couldn't put it down!
Review: I loved "Millicent Min,Girl Genius" It was a great book and I loved the way it was in Diary form.It was hard however to visualize Emily and Stanford, 2 of the main chracters. The book was funny at times. Some kids might find that they don't know some of the words meanings (I only did beacuse my teacher does 'word of the day' and some of them were in the vocab for "Tuck Everlasting". All and all I could not put the book down and I am sure my conduct grade went down by reading this in class!!!!!

Summary: Straight A's
Review: I loved this book. (Some people think that I am like Millie, but I'll take that as a complement.) Millicent Min is really smart, and really dumb at the same time. She's only 11, but taking a class in college for the summer. All her friends are adults, until she meets Emily. She lies to Emily and almost loses her as a friend. The book is about truth and friendship. And it's really funny, though some parts are very sad and almost made me cry.

Summary: "Brillant" Book- A Great read!
Review: I LOVED this book. At first, I thought this book was okay, but as Millicent ( Also know as Millie ) Takes up some "I'm a regular 11 year old girl" sports and actually meets a girl named Emily. Even though they are different, Millicent and Emily are bound to be friends. But Millie doesn't tell her she's in college. - I reccomend this book for ages 5- ??. It was a great price for a thick book... about 280 pages... I got mine for 4.99 :)

Summary: Mrs. Gowin Rules!
Review: I really enjoyed reading this book. It made me laugh; it made me cry. It made me see things through the eyes of a young person again. Millicent, blessed and cursed with being a child genius, needs something that we all take for granted -- a friend. When Millicent thinks she has finally found someone, Emily, who is willing to be her friend she stops at nothing to keep her friendship going. Meanwhile, she's forced into tutoring the one person with whom she doesn't want to be friends, Stanford. To further complicate matters, Emily and Stanford develop a romantic relations of their own that makes for some interesting plot twists and ironic scenes. In the end, Emily finds true friendship, although in the place she least expected to find it. Henrietta Gowin, my favorite character, really has little to do with the story but that name, Henrietta Gowin, rings of sophistication. Her character must have been inspired by an exceptional person.

Summary: Excellent Humor!
Review: It's always a joy to find a book that I can't put down, and MILLICENT MIN was such a story. Lisa Yee has accomplished two very difficult feats, combining a genuinely funny book with real emotional depth. Add to this her many interesting and well-rounded characters and you've got a book that kids, and adults like me, will classify as a winner. Congratulations, Ms. Yee!

Summary: Millicent Min -- Sid Fleischman Humor Award Winner
Review: It's the summer before Millicent's senior year of high school. She has a hard time making friends and fitting in because she is ELEVEN years old. Millicent is a genius, but there's a lot that she needs to learn about living. Life is going to get a little crazy, for order-loving Millicent. Her grandmother is moving away. Her mom has signed her up for summer sports. She has to tutor Stanford, a family friend, who she has a hard time getting along with. She is taking her first college class. Will Millicent survive all the changes? Will Millicent make her first friend that is her own age? This is a quick read that is hard to put down. I'm looking forward to Lisa Yee's next book that tells about the same time period from Stanford's point of view (www.lisayee.com).

Summary: Silly Milli!
Review: Millicent Min is a good, no great book to read! Not only is it fun filled and funny but it's loaded with little pieces of advice that are very true thanks to the wonderful author Lisa Yee. It's about this very smart girl who has no friends because she is always critizing and correcting them but then her mother signs her up (against her will) for the dreaded volleyball team. There she finally makes a friend, Emily, but Emily doesn't know Milli's secret of being a college student at the age of eleven. Will Millicent tell Emily? And if she does will Emily still be friends? Find out by reading the book. I've heard that her book is so great that they're going to make it in Italian and it's already out on audio tape! What luck for a first time book! Congrads Mrs. Yee
