Book Description

Publication Date: November 1, 1989 | Age Level: 9 and up

"It usually takes me all week to read a book. With Mandie, I read about one book a day. I just can't put it down," writes a young reader from Michigan.

The school year is over and Mandie is coming home for the summer. Mandie Book readers will expect that she can hardly wait to be with her mother and stepfather, her friends and loved ones. But that's not the way it works out-

Ever since Mandie's mother told her she was going to have a baby, the thought of having to share her mother with a brother or sister has caused problems for her. When she arrives home these troubling thought become even stronger. And the baby never stops crying!

Mandie is about to take her future into her own hands. Can you guess what happens?

More About the Author

Lois began her first Mandie story when she was only eleven years old. But eventually the manuscript was tucked away in a drawer and forgotten. Lois went on to attend Furman University and studied music for several years in New York City where she and her sister sang professionally. Some years ago, Lois was prompted to pull that old manuscript out and began to work on Mandie's story-of her childhood in the South at the turn of the century and her Cherokee heritage. The rest is history and now the MANDIE BOOKS series have sales nearing six million copies! Lois writes from her home in South Carolina. Enthusiastic young fans fill her mailbox with their insightful responses to her stories.

This review is from: Mandie and the Midnight Journey (Mandie, Book 13) (Paperback)

I liked this Mandie book, and the mystery was good. The only thing i didn't like was her additude. Mandie really needs to grow up and help out more. Also, this has a good Mandie-Joe part!

5.0 out of 5 stars Mandie is really getting annoyed now!, June 28, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Mandie and the Midnight Journey (Mandie, Book 13) (Paperback)

Mandie is sick and tired of her new baby brother. He cries all the time and she feels like no one loves her any more. She ends running away, but in the end learns her lesson. All the Mandie books are very good. I'm 14 but that does not stop me from reading them. Lois, please keep writing them and never stop, even if you have to write about Mandie's daughter or even her grandmother as a little girl.
