'Pincho: Nothing is Possible' - Book of the Week

Emmie & Friends Series

by ,
(24 reviews)

Emmie & Friends is funny and delightful illustrated series about navigating middle school and emotions, perfect for fans of Dork Diaries or Diary of a Wimpy Kid aged 8+.

In each book we meet a new set of characters who are often opposites. Each character faces a challenge of their own, from feeling invisible and struggling to focus, to not liking being at the centre of attention and even being made fun of. As we read each endearing and relatable story, we learn that things aren't always what they may look like from the outside, as well as the power of being true to ourselves and letting our uniqueness shine bright.

To top it all off, along with gaining confidence, our main characters often learn a thing or two about friendship! You do not have to read the books in any particular order, so just start with whichever one you feel you might feel most connected to. And if you enjoy these books, do also check out our Best Family and Home Book Series for 9 and 10 year olds.
