# The Ellie McDoodle Diaries 4: New Kid in School - Hardcover

by **Ruth McNally Barshaw** (Author)

Moving to a new house? Bad. Being the new kid? Worse.

Ellie's family is moving to a new town, and Ellie is sure she won't fit in at school. The other kids play "new kid bingo" behind her back, and even the teachers can't seem to remember her name. But when her new classmates start complaining about long lunch lines (and bad food), Ellie jumps at the chance to lead a protest. And tackling the school cafeteria just might be the perfect way to make new friends!

Full of engaging illustrations and quirky humor, the Ellie McDoodle series is perfect for fans who love the Dork Diaries and the Treehouse Books.

"Reminiscent of Jeff Kinney's _Diary of a Wimpy Kid_. . . . Humorous and realistic." --_SLJ_
