PAULA DANZIGER'S AMBER BROWN IS TICKLED PINK by Bruce Coville and Elizabeth Levy with illustrations by Tony Ross. Putnam, 2013.
Two of Paula Danziger's friends have teamed up to bring back one of Paula's favorite characters, the indomitable Amber Brown. Amber's mom is getting married, and Amber is worried about all of the fussing and disagreement going on about the ceremony and reception. Coville and Levy have remained totally faithful to Danziger's creation, to her humor, and to her understanding about how the minds of kids work.
