Review of Dork Diaries 1:
Nikki is the new girl at a wealthy private school, and unfortunately another girl named MacKenzie is starting school there too. MacKenzie is the ultimate “mean girl” and starts to do her “mean girl” stuff to Nikki. Nikki tries her best to avoid her, but of course it does not work. On the upside, Nikki makes some good friends at this school, and they help her. Nikki records all of her adventures about being the new girl, in her diary.
