«Jamie is crushing on Hudson. Someone too-gross-to-be-named is crushing on Jamie. And Hudson is crushing on... Princess Turd of Turdsylvania (a.k.a. The Prettiest Girl in the World). Middle school may be grim, but it's no fairy tale. And crazy doesn't even begin to cover it. «Dear Dumb Diary, I got another poem today from You-Know-Who! 'She is the fairest blossom, true, She blooms in any weather. But I must love her from afar. We'll never be together.' Signed, M.P. Can you believe the pain he's in? His suffering? The crushing heartache he endures every time he sees me? Gosh, it just makes me so happy». ABOUT JIM BENTON: JIM BENTON is not a middle school girl, but do not hold that against him. He has managed to make a living out of being funny anyway. He is the creator of many licensed properties, some for big kids, some for little kids, and some for grown-ups that, frankly, are probably behaving like little kids. You may already know his properties It's Happy Bunny, or Just Jimmy, and you are about to get to know Dear Dumb Diary. He's created a kids TV series, designed clothing, and written books. Jim Benton lives in Michigan with his spectacular wife and kids. They do not have a dog, and they especially do not have a vengeful beagle. This is his first series for Scholastic. Jamie Kelly doesn't know who Jim Benton is and wonders why he is even being mentioned in connection with her diary. She also wonders when the poison will take effect and if he is a boy... and cute.» |
