Jones series had a much more real voice and was truely, LOL, funny. Clementine is a natural step up, for children who have graduated from grade one to grade three and are ready for a more "novelish" book approach. I did enjoy the stories and the art, though, for me, it would take a heck of a writer and illustrator to compare to the team of Barbara Parks and Denise Brunkus.

Boys are now 10 and 13 but we read them a while ago- a fun series of books for kids! ithink every kid goes through times where they don't feel like they fit in, and I think kids will identify with Clementine's individuality. That's why I love these books so much! Creativity unleashed. Thanks so much for reviewing these books! Boys are now 10 and 13 but we read them a while ago- a fun series of books for kids!
