I'm not Invited

Beschreibung

Amelia Maskin had never experienced drama in school before…until sixth grade. Amelia and her two best friends, Ellie and Reyna, had been best friends since kindergarten. They were super excited to finally be going into sixth grade, to be older kids. They weren't expecting it, but some new kids were coming into their grade to learn alongside them. One of the new kids, Baylee, became one of their best friends. One day, Baylee, Ellie, and Reyna started telling secrets to each other, excluding Amelia from their conversations. Amelia didn't know what she did wrong, so she asked the three what they were talking about and why they weren't including her. After lots of interrogation occurred, she finally figured out what their secret was. Baylee was throwing a birthday party and not inviting Amelia. She was very upset, and didn't know what to do. And to make things worse, Baylee said to Amelia that she didn't want to be friends with her anymore. This made Amelia even more confused, and Ellie and Reyna told her some more bad news. "What could get worse?" Amelia thought. That's when Baylee dropped the bomb. She told Ellie and Reyna that they had to choose between her and Amelia! Read to find out what happens next!

Claire Burbank is 12 years old & lives with her family in Nottingham. I always knew I had a passion for writing. In any free time I get, I think, "I want to write!" There are three reasons I do: 1. It's really fun to tell my own fictional stories with details, drama & comedy. 2. I want to publish my books so the world can read them and enjoy them. 3. I want people to know the important issue of bullying but have a good time learning about it in a fun way It all started back in third grade when I made a little book about bullying. (Available on iTunes, just search Claire Burbank) It was about this girl named Amelda and she gets bullied. She gets teased about her appearance and how she was different from the others. I had watched many movies about bullying and had seen some people get bullied and didn't even realize it. I wanted to make up for all of those times I didn't stand up for the other person and those times I might have been apart of the teasing by writing a little book. It probably took me about ten minutes to write this little 7 paged picture book. I brought it to my classroom and showed it to my guidance counselor, who was the person it was dedicated to. She recognized my care for bullying and put it on the school website. When it was taken down for the next piece of news to be shown, I wanted people to keep viewing it. So, I decided to publish it along with the help of my dad and his many IT director friends. It was a long process, but we ended up publishing it on iTunes, and I wanted to keep writing. So, I decided to make and publish more books about bullying, realistic fiction or not so realistic fiction. I currently have published 9 books, I have worked really hard on all of these books, I appreciate it and hope it helps Stop Bullying.
