| The Amazing Days of Abby Hayes |
comment |
A children's series by Anne Mazer.The series chronicles the life of Abigail "Abby" Hayes, a purple-loving, journal-writing redhead who also suffers from Middle Child Syndrome. These books are notable for being realistic, even when reality isn't pleasant (ie— a good friend evolving from a Nice Girl and a Shrinking Violet to a borderline mean girl.) The first 15 books covered Abby in fifth grade. After a Super Special, the second Super Special was her entering the sixth grade. |

comment |
Tastes Like Disdain: In The Best Is Yet To Come, Abby's mother Olivia invites her old friend from college, Laurie, to visit the Hayes house, and even prepares her favorite foods from scratch to welcome her—lasagne and cherry cobbler. She finds out the hard way that Laurie has taken a level or two in jerkass when she turns her nose up at the food because she no longer eats wheat, sugar, or dairy and goes on a self-righteous spiel about how lasagne clogs the arteries with fats, poisons and toxins. |

It's All About Me |
| The Amazing Days of Abby Hayes / int_bb18a227 |
comment |
It's All About Me: Brianna. The second book has a nasty example from the rest of the Hayes family: a festival is coming up, and everyone wants to go. Abby, who has spent several years taking Alex around the festival, declares that she doesn't want to take Alex and actually wants to do her own thing, like going places without being escorted by older siblings/parents, and not being Alex's automatic babysitter all the time. The response is not pretty: Abby's father tries to emotionally blackmail her by saying that they planned their time based on the assumption that she'd take care of Alex, and the twins are furious that they might actually have to take care of their brother for once. Alex is furious that Abby wants to have a life outside of him. Only Abby's mother finds this to be reasonable. |

comment |
Ear-Piercing Plot: Before starting middle school, Abby wants to get her ears pierced, but her parents won't allow it. Her older sisters suggest clip-ons as a compromise. When she trips and falls in the hallway, one of her earrings falls off, exposing that her ears aren't really pierced, and Victoria makes fun of her for wearing clip-ons. When she goes as far as to make up a humiliating song about "the one-earring wonder" and sing it loudly in the hallways, Abby decides to get her ears pierced without permission so she won't be laughed at anymore. |
