Amelia's Guide to Gossip is Amelia's fifth middle school notebook, and twenty-first notebook overall.

Dedication[]

This guide is dedicated to Elias, Shelah, and Debbie, all expert gossips.

Plot[]

Amelia analyzes the various types of gossip: true, untrue, juicy, stale, hot off the rumor mill, or old stuff that everyone has already heard. She also illustrates how it is spread through school from a source to the kids who exist on the fringes in what she calls the Gossip Ripple Effect. In the end, Amelia admits that gossip is like a fire that you can't help but stare at, but if you get too close, you can get burned. She likes to hear and spread juicy tidbits, but balks at false statements being circulated about her. This book is neither creative nor funny. The majority of it focuses on information about gossiping with only an incidental story about Amelia, and the absence of a plot makes it a rather lackluster offering.
