5.0 out of 5 stars If only I could have read this when I was a teenager!, November 29, 1997

This review is from: Adrian Mole from Minor to Major: The Mole Diaries - The First Ten Years (Hardcover)

As a Chinese girl growing up in the capital city Beijing, I felt a lot of the things Adrian feels -- but I would never have said or written them! When I was a kid, you just didn't talk to grownups like that. This is a funny book, but the humor is a bit black at times, and very moving. No doubt about it: Sue Townsend hasn't forgotten one iota what it means to be a teenager. P.S. I love Adrian's dog too!

5.0 out of 5 stars American Reader, July 5th, 1998, July 6, 1998

This review is from: Adrian Mole from Minor to Major: The Mole Diaries - The First Ten Years (Hardcover)

I was 13 when my mom first handed me this book, and as there was virtually no new reading material on the base I was living on in Japan, and I being the book-o-holic I am, I read it in one day. I love Adrian and and his diary entries! It's four years later, and I still read my battered copy whenever I need to be cheered up--like before the SATs or when I just need to laugh--everyone should own this book. :)

This review is from: Adrian Mole from Minor to Major: The Mole Diaries - The First Ten Years (Hardcover)

This book is not only humourous but moving. It is a geniune comment on the society of the time in my opinion. It covers practically anything you're going to come across in life. Just brilliant!
