Synopsis
Amber is used to change—her life has been full of it lately. First her best friend Justin moved and she became best friends with Brandi. Then she had to deal with her parents' divorce and her dad's move to France. She's even getting used to her mom's boyfriend, Max. Now the only change that she wants is to redo her bedroom. But then Max asks Amber's mom to marry him. If she says yes, they might have to move. But if she says no, then Max may leave. Amber's mom is confused—and so is Amber! Can't things just stay the same for once?

October 12, 2009: I am forever looking for books that will help my girls gently deal with divorce and my dating again. I loved the way this book touched on it repeatedly but then went back to the story. It was just enough for my girls to think about it. I have bought two more Amber Brown books so we can continue to read about it and talk about it.

February 10, 2009: Forever Amber Brown by Paula Danziger is an exciting tale about a fourth grader, Amber Brown. Amber has to deal with some difficult situations that are hard for a young girl, especially an only child. Not only does Amber have to deal with her parents? divorce, but also her best friend, Justin, has moved away to Alabama. Amber Brown lives with her mother in New Jersey. Amber never gets to see her father because of his recent move to Paris. This story is great for children because it shows how Amber gets through the hard times with laughter and growing closer to her mother. Her mother meets a man named Max. At first, Amber is hesitant about getting close to Max, in spite of her love for her father. Soon, Amber realizes that Max is good for her mother and starts to like him. Poor Amber then has to deal with another dilemma when Max asks her mother to marry him. This would be fine, but they might have to move. Her mother has a difficult decision to make and Amber helps her. It is a book that brings comedy to serious, not so fun, situations. This book is great for children that have to deal with divorce and change.
