Rating: Summary: A pretty good read Review: This hilarious book, based on the hit movie, is a fun, light read for ages 8 and up. Although it was written in the 1970s, it still has a lot of appeal and charm to all kinds of audiences. This book is based on the 2003 version of the movie, but you'll find that many parts are different. Annabel Andrews was a twelve-year-old girl with braces, brown hair, and brown eyes. She was constantly getting into fights with her brother Ben who she called Ape Face and feeling trapped by her parents by not being able to do whatever she wants. So one day, Annabel and her mother have a large fight in which her mother states she will pay for it. So Annabel wasn't really surprised when she woke up the next morning and found she was sleeping in her mother's bed, wearing pins and rollers in her hair and a long nightgown. Figuring that her mother had something to do with this, Annabel decides to play along and see what it's really like to be an adult. Turns out, it's not easy as Annabel thinks. She has problems with the washer, Ben nearly gets lost in the city because Annabel forgot to pick him up, and she madly goes from one situation to another trying to figure out a way to fix it. Soon enough, Annabel finds herself wishing that she could be back in her own body again and can only hope that her mother, who Annabel figured had ditched school, will do something about it. The ending is okay; it's not too good, not too bad. I think I would recommend this book on an overall basis; fans of the movie may want to try something different.

Rating: Summary: Fun even if dated Review: This is a very funny book even if it seems a little out-of-date. I bet the movie will be very good even though it doesn't look like it is going to be very much like the book. Another book I read that was similar to this one was 12 Again, which was funny but a mystery, too, and more current.
Rating: Summary: Funny Book Review: This is a very funny book. This book is very cool. It's about a girl that turns into her mother and I would never want to change into my mother. It's scary! This book is very good.
Rating: Summary: Okay, so how many times have I seen this storyline? Review: Two people changing bodies. This has been the storyline for many books and tv shows for years. I think I am in need of something more unique. Although I have to admit,this book is not all that bad considering it used the "done before" plot. Mary Rodgers did a pretty good job at making this book more interesting than it would have been had it been written by an author of less skill. It won't hurt to read it anyway.
Rating: Summary: Quite a funny book which makes ya laugh for ................

Rating: Summary: interesting story Review: When Annabel Andrews woke up one day, she found out that she was in her mom's body. She has to do all the things her mom does like go to work and drive even though she does not know how. Her mom has to go to school as if she were Annabel. Her mom knows how to drive but she is not allowed because she is only 13, supposedly. . . . You will have to read the book to find out how this happens and how they solve the problem. I give this book 4 stars because it was boring on the first five pages. After the first five pages, the book got better because it had more adventure. It has an interesting story behind it.
