LOVE IT!
I love it! Done a book report on it....My favorite part in the book is When Natalie goes under the name of Cassandra Day and she sends her book to the publishing company her mom works at, Shipley Junior Books. This part is my favorite part because that was when it really started to get interesting to the point when I couldn’t put it down! I even started wondering if I could become a famous author like Natalie became, I don’t think I ever could of though.

AWESOME BOOK!!!!!!
It was a GREAT book!!! I've read it about twenty times! I can really relate to this book. I like to write. I have a few obnoxious friends. I CAN NOT put it down once I start reading it! I could read Andrew Clements for HOURS every day and not get tired of his books!

Great!!!
I loved this book! I usually never read a book twice (unless it's like a picture book), and this was the first chapter book I read twice. It's an amazing story!

I laughed!
This book was my first by Andrew Clements. I think that he is a really good author, and this book inspired me to read more by him. This book is good for all kids basically, and it makes you think about wanting to write a story and get it published.

I read till i dropped
School story is the best story for inspiring young authors. It teaches about publishing, and how hard it is to write a book. I read it in school and i will never forget it.

It was ok.
There was nothing bad in it, it just wasn't great. For 9 and 10 year olds it would be really good though.

Awesome book! I couldn't put it down until I had read through it!
This is a great story of a girl(Natalie) who follows her dreams. She's been the best writer in her grade for as long as her teachers can remember. When she writes a book, her best friend is eager to get it published. She helps Natalie get it to a publisher, who happens to be Natalies mom. The two friends have to use fake names so that the publishers will look at the book, because books that are written from kids have no chance. Will Natalie get her book published?
