About the book
Dork Diaries is a children's series told as a diary, filled with drawings, doodles and comic strips that record the daily life of Nikki Maxwell, a 14-year-old girl who loves art and sketching. Nikki starts at Westchester Country Day, a private school she attends only thanks to a scholarship. At home she copes with a family she finds odd, including her exterminator father. At school she is mocked by Mackenzie Hollister and the clique of popular girls, while she leans on her two close friends, Chloe and Zoey, and notices a classmate named Brandon.
