Paula Danziger
Born in Washington, D.C., and raised in New York, Paula Danziger knew since second grade that she wanted to be a writer. Beginning her career as a teacher, Danziger taught at the junior high, high school, college levels. She received her Masters Degree in reading and during that time she wrote her first bestselling novel, The Cat Ate My Gymsuit. She returned to teaching, but the success of her book encouraged her to become a full-time writer. It was non-stop for Danziger since then. Among her titles are: the enormously popular Amber Brown books as well as Remember Me To Harold Square, The Divorce Express, and Can You Sue Your Parents For Malpractice? Danziger received numerous honors, including: Parent's Choice Awards, International Reading Association - Children's Book Council Awards, a IRA-CBC Children's Choice Award and many nominations for state reading and library association awards. Known as a flamboyantly funny and deeply honest writer and speaker, Paula Danziger knew how to relate to young readers at their level. She was vital, funny, and compassionate. She knew how kids felt, what made them laugh, what they wore, collected, read, and played with. From collecting novelty toys that would make any teacher cringe, to wearing jangly earrings, funky glasses and shoes covered with beads and sequins, Paula Danziger had a direct line into kids' hearts and funnybones. She will be missed always. In Paula's memory, The Amber Brown Fund has been established to bring authors and illustrators to schools and libraries which otherwise could not afford them. Donations may be sent to The Amber Brown Fund/ SCBWI Museum of Children’s Books, 8271 Beverly Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90048.

Reviews for You Can't Eat Your Chicken Pox, Amber Brown
30 ratings4 reviews
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This a story that has a middle age girl, by the name of Amber. Amber happens to be visiting London with her anunt when she contracts chicken-pox. The message I like most was the fact she had devorced parents. The story advocates changes are not always possible, but family will help you through!
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Amber goes to London with her aunt, and gets the chicken pox. Also, her dad, who is divorced from her mom and lives in France comes to visit. It seems like this book is mostly about divorced parents and how they relate to each other and their child, and not a trip to London (although Amber does do some sight-seeing) or chicken pox.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5interesting and funny and entertaining
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Not exactly the heir to Ramona Quimby, as sometimes Amber has real dark feelings inside, and sometimes she shares them. I don't clearly remember every story so I'm copying this review to each book.
