About this ebook
When eight-and-a-half-year-old Mallory McDonald’s parents tell her that they are moving, she’s mad—really mad! It’s not fair! How can they make her move away from Mary Ann, her best friend in the whole wide world? Who will she paint her toenails with, tell secrets to, and make scrapbooks with? When Mallory arrives at her new house on Wish Pond Road, things are terrible. Her room is too small and the girl next door is mean. But Joey lives next door, too. Even though he doesn’t paint his toes, he tells jokes, helps teach her cat to do tricks, and shows her how to skateboard. Mallory’s having so much fun she forgets the pact she made with Mary Ann never to make friends with a boy next door. But, when Mary Ann comes to visit, what will Mallory do? Will she have to choose between her best friend and her new friend?

Reviews for Mallory on the Move
19 ratings2 reviews
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5When Mallory's parents tell her that they are moving three hours away, Mallory is not happy - it means leaving behind her house, her room, and her very best friend. She pinkie swears that she will not be friends with any boys in her new house, but when they arrive the only kid around is the boy next door. Surprisingly, he's a lot of fun and they become friends. Mallory gets into a bit of a jam when her best friend comes to visit and the three of them try to play together. Mallory is a little less sassy than Junie B. or Piper Reed - so it would be a good book for those girls that are looking for someone more "real." Good messages about making new friends and adjusting to new situations - the weight of the message matches with the reading level of the book.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Mallory is forced to move to a new town and has troubles adjusting. Unremarkable series similar to Junie B.
