The Kissing Diary

(4) 4-6 Twelve-year-old Rosie Goldglitt strives to figure out boys, her divorced parents, and just about everything else in this meandering novel. Rosie's diary entries supplement the third-person narration, allowing readers to observe her from varying distances as she navigates relationships with friends, family, and heartthrob Robbie Romano. The story's amusing at times, but plot and character are fairly standard.
