Book Review and Giveaway- Moving Day (Allie Finkle's Rules for Girls, #1) by Meg Cabot

Moving Day (Allie Finkle's Rules For Girls, #1) Moving Day by Meg Cabot

Allie Finkle and her family are moving and she is not too happy about it. She doesn't want to change schools or have to make new friends. She doesn't want to give up her geode collection and her pink perfect bedroom. The new house is old, dark and looks like a haunted house. She will do anything to keep her parents from moving.

What a fun book for young girls. The voice of Allie is right on. It sounds just like my niece (who will be getting this book next) and her friends. Her comments and observations, her rules-everything was just really cute and funny. Allie Finkle's Rules for Girls is a series all girls will enjoy especially if the other books are as fun as this one. There are three other books out that I can't wait to get and read before passing them on to my 9 year old niece.

Oh yeah, and the cover is really cool. The dust jacket is actually a poster!

4/5
