Booky has matured since we first met her, but her spunk and humour remain in this final book of this beloved series! Booky is back! Ever since she "romped through the Depression on her skinny legs", she has delighted readers with her feistiness and nerve. In this last book of the popular series, Booky finishes high school and lands her first job. She meets Lucy Maud Montgomery and begins her own writing career. No longer the scatterbrain she was in her younger years, Booky navigates through adolescence, falls in love and moves gracefully into adulthood. This lovely reissue, with its updated look, will find its way into the hearts and minds of a whole new generation of Booky fans!

Booky is turning thirteen and life is ever-changing! Once again, she counts on her humour and wit to help her survive the growing pains. The irrepressible Booky is back! She's growing up and getting into more scrapes than ever - sneaking into a show, telling ghost stories to scare the daylights out of little kids, getting fired from her first babysitting job, and more. It's also a year of firsts for her: first pair of shorts(!), first crush, first date, and her first experience with death. And to top it off, money is still tight and her parents still argue. How will she survive the growing pains? As always there is the warm side of Booky, the side that cherishes her grandfather and her Aunt Aggie-the Booky that will hold her family together even through the hardest times.
