Jamie KeseloffMarch 27, 2003Period 2Amber Brown Is Feeling BlueIn the story, Amber Brown is feeling blue, written by Paula Danziger is about a girl named Amber whose parents are divorced and for Thanksgiving, her Mom wants to take her to Walla Walla, Washington but her Dad wants to take her to New York. She doesn't want to choose - but her parents are leaving it up to her. To make things worse, Amber Brown isn't the only one in school with a colorful name anymore. Kelly Green is the new girl in her class.Amber ended up going with her Mom but promised her Dad that she would go with him during Christmas break. Amber ends up showing Kelly around the school and they become best friends.My favorite part in the book is when Kelly sees another student throwing up so she ended up throwing up too.I chose this book because it is about a girl my age and I wanted to learn about her life and how it compares to mine.
