Still completing the Beverly Cleary re-read. I remember this one well from my childhood. I didn't relate to Leigh, but I knew a lot of kids who could. It's a good story for any kid who feels like they don't really have anyone to talk to but creates a familiar someone through a favourite author, and then by writing in a journal.
Leigh isn't unlike any kid in a challenging situation. And the character is someone that every kid can understand.
