    About this audiobook

    Nikki Maxwell enters a talent competition in this third installment of the #1 New York Times bestselling Dork Diaries series!

    Nikki Maxwell has been doing everything she can to keep everyone at school from learning the truth—that she’s there on scholarship in exchange for her Dad working as the school’s exterminator. When a major talent competition is announced with a school scholarship offered as the top prize, it’s the perfect opportunity Nikki has been waiting for. Can she sing and dance her way to letting her dad (and her reputation!) off the hook?

      I really loved this book! It is really funny and had me laughing at every page. This is the third book in the Dork Diaries Series, so I recommend you start with the first book. This is just like Diary of a Wimpy Kid, but for girls. It is about an unpopular girl trying to get through middle school, dealing with crushes, mean girls, and a lot of homework. It's just like my middle school. I really loved this book and hope you will too!

      SOOOO much better than the last two. It's still a cliched rip-off of the ever-popular Battle of the Bands prize solves all protagonist's problems, but Nikki is far more likable in this one.

      Dork Diaries: Tales from a Not-So-Talented Pop Star is about a girl named Nikki who receives a tuition bill. The easiest way to earn a scholarship is to win the talent show, so she organizes a band and signs up for the talent show. I like this book because it is like a female version of Diary of a Wimpy Kid, which I like. Also, I like it because she comes up with a strategy to solve a big problem. If I were her I would have told my parents first, but I would have also tried to solve the problem. I would totally recommend this book to other kids.

      This book is about a girl named Nikki and she is trying out for the talent show. Along the way she has to deal with crush problems, mean girls, and a crazy family. Her month starts off with having to watch her sister, Brianna,at the mall and then her sister goes into the fountain in search for money and they get enough money to go to a pizza place. While they are there they get invited to go up on stage and sing the place's theme song and while they are there the popular mean girl, MacKinzie, is there with her little sister and friends also and get a video of them dancing. Then Nikki has a problem with the tution bill she gets for school since her dad "can't" work and the only way to pay the tution off is to win the talent show. There is only on problem, MacKinzie is out to ruin Nikki's life and her chances with winning the talent show. What will happen? Find out in Tales from a Not-So-Talented Pop Star. This book is amazing and it show the life of a teen. Teens have to go through drama,family problems, and so much more. Rachel Renee Russell is able to put all of that in one series. This book keeps you waiting for more and rolling on the floor laughing. If the words won't keep you laughing the pictures sure will. The pictures and illustrations look like a teen drawled them and they go perfectly with the text. If Rachel Renee Russell writes another book, I want to be one of the first to read, her books are just that good.

      I really enjoyed reading Dork Diaries 3. This book is about Nikki, Chloe, Zoey, and Brandon. It is pretty much the same characters as the other books in the series. In this book Nikki's friendship grows more with Chloe, Zoey, Brandon and more people. There is a new story where Nikki and her friends form a band to enter in the school talent show. Bad news, Mackenzie and her friends formed their own group to enter too. Whoever wins the talent show gets a big prize.Who will win? This is a laugh-out-loud book by Rachel Renee Russell.

      This book was kind of like Diary Of A Wimpy Kid but for girls. It's an amazing book. I was laughing at every page. I really enjoyed this book.
