Summary: A BOOK TEENAGERS WILL REMEMBER
Review: This is an excellent book for teenagers to read. Not only is it fast reading, but it also deals with family problems and trust. Tish Bonner is a 10th grader who is abandoned by her parents and is left to raise her little brother, Matt. Her english teacher, Mrs. Dunphrey, has everyone in her class write a daily journal. The teacher told the students to write "Do not read this" on the entries they didn't want her to read. On her private "Do not read this" pages, Tish takes a lot of risks and talks about her many problems trying to earn money and raise her brother. When Tish asks Mrs. Dunphrey to read her private journals at the end of the school year, it is Tish's way of reaching out for help, which Mrs. Dunphrey gladly gives her. I liked reading this book because Tish never gave up, even when things were awful. It also helps the reader realize that we can't do everything by ourselves and sometimes we need to depend on others to help us out.

Summary: Don't You Dare Read this Mrs. Dumphry
Review: This was a very touching story. I always wanted to keep reading it, because it would always leave me hanging. I really recommend this book for girls who are having a hard time during their teen years; it will make them realize there is always something worse that could be happening to you.

Summary: A good quick read
Review: Though this book is small, it's in no way non-entertaining or childish. It tells an amazing story about a girl named Tish. WHen her English teacher assignes her to write a journal, she has no idea how much will happen to her this year, or how much she'll write down of it. But Mrs. Dumphery won't read anything that says "Don't read" on the top. Unfortunatly what Tish really needs is someone to talk about abusive father, her emotionaly distraught mother, and dead grandmother, and her sensitive seven-year-old brother. If you've enjoyed entertaining books such as HATE YOU, and A DOOR NEAR HERE, you'll love this one.

Summary: Haddix is one of the best tenn story writers!
Review: We read this in school and it is a compelling gripping drama about a 15 year old, Tish Bonner, who faces everything a 15 year old does and much, much more. Her dad walked out on her family, her grandmother is deceased, her mother sits and stares at the TV all day, they struggle with bills, and the whole time she is keeping a journal for her English class. She thinks it's dumb, but Mrs. Dunphrey said that if you write Don't Read, she will not read the entry. Tish writes "Don't Wrote for Every entry except a few and tells the details about her life. Haddix is a wonderful writer and I think that all teens should really read this book.
