5By Blush blah meMany kids will go through this problem each year and this book is an amazing read for preteen and teen girls.It was great
4By Zachary PapaI think the book it's not the end of the world was a great book. It is great for kids parents who are getting in a divorce. This book thought me a lot of lessons about divorces and how kids handle their parents divorce. I think it was one of the best books I ever read. But the reason why I am dating it 4 stars is because the book didn't end properly, everything was still going on and the parents weren't 100% divorced yet. But the rest of the book was great. I hope you read this book. And I also hope you enjoy this book as much as I didI'm dealing with the same sort of problem
5By animewoman43Dear Judy Blume, I hope you can read this , because I've got something to say. My father has a real bit of a temper problem and now on the night of September 15th 2013 , me and my big brother who is 2 years older than me have given up on him ,but my little sister dawn who is 2 years younger than me hasn't given up yet. I am 12 years old and I'm in 7th grade, I'll be 13 in December. So, at this point all of us don't know what to do. I'm not sure if my mother and father are getting divorced, being on trial separation or what. So if you can help please write back. Sincerely the one you've inspired, Lynsey Grover
