Such an authentic perspective of a 3rd grade girl, Amber Brown, whose best friend, Justin, is about to move from New Hampshire to Alabama. I found myself crossing my fingers just as hard that Amber's wishes would come true. Fantastic storytelling! Series.

I'm going through a difficult and sad week ... I was looking for something to separate me from this world for a few minutes ... I found my favorite book from my childhood ... I wish everything was the same as when I was a child and I wished I was like Amber ... now everything is harder ... but I’m happy that this book still calms me down even after 11 years and Amber makes me smile ...❤️❤️❤️

I loved this books. I believe it is the first in a series and I feel that it would really attract girls that are growing older and creating great relationships. The main character Amber Brown is about to experience a great change. Her best friend Justin is moving but will she be able to survive without him or will his moving create strife in their relationship.

This book is just great for any girl. Especially girls that a growing up.

I loved this series when I was a kid and I recently remembered it so I decided to re-read it because why not ❤️ what I love is that the author touches on some important lessons and things kids deal with.

Cuando me recomendaron leer más de pequeña tuve la suerte de encontrarme con esta historia. Amé este libro pero, tristemente no me fue posible conseguir la continuación. A día de hoy lo sigo recordando con mucho cariño porque me marcó. Aunque sea para niños creo que me daré el lujo de contentar a mi niña interior y ver cómo acaba esto. Ah, y por si no ha quedado claro, sí, amo este libro y si eres un niño/a te lo recomiendo mucho.

This book is about a girl Amber brown who has a best friend with Justin. They help each other and are very close. One day Justin finds out he is moving which makes amber brown sad and confused what is she going to do without him. Kids can identify and answer questions on each part of the book and why their emotions are like this with prove.

I had to skip several pages of the first chapter. Hope we forget about it until third grade.

Rachel brought this one home. Amber's world has already been rocked by her parents' divorce and now, only in 3rd grade, she has to deal the the fact that her best friend is moving away.

I’ve been looking for a book that reminds me of the Ramona books by Beverly Cleary and this one came pretty close. Amber Brown stands on her own as a main character and the story itself would be relevant for many children. Amber’s relationship with her best friend, Justin, was well depicted, as well as the situation they find themselves in. I especially loved the moment Amber and her mom shared regarding the friendship.

This had just the right amount of silliness and drama. The teacher having his class “travel” to different countries to learn about them sounded so neat. The illustrations didn’t do much for me but that’s okay as I mostly listened to this one via audio and enjoyed the narration. I will be reading the rest and perhaps check out the television series. I would have loved these as a child.

3.5 stars

ahh necesitaba un libro que me sacara de mi bloqueo y me encanto esta opción, no sabía que necesitaba leer un libro para niños hasta que lo hice.
me identifiqué mucho con la protagonista, les juro que soy ella en un cuerpo de 18 años JAJAJA.
obvio tiene una trama muy pequeña, ya que es un libro escolar, pero ame la pequeña historia que cuentan.
