"You won't be a little wrinkle,you'll look like one big wrinkle" or Abby In Wonderland part 1

Finally a Abby blog post. I wanted to do a blog report on this book because I feel that Abby should deserve to have at least some recognition in this series. Plus this book is just great. Besides I like Abby, even if she is another Kristy clone, or Dawn's replacement. Not to mention the Hunter Bruno allergies and the fact that she has asthma too.  Still, I like Abby. Anyways, on with the post.

Now this is the book that probably draws a lot of Abby fans wild and crazy in a good way, unlike Abby The Bad Sport ( i got to read that book by the way). Look at the cover for instance:

On the cover, Abby shakes hands with her grandmother in her Alice in Wonderland costume and looks as if she cant believe that her grandmother is still alive and kicking it well. Grandmother is wearing a long white robe with a crystal wand and is looking at Abby as if she can't believe her granddaughter is still keeping her hair wild and untamed judging by the way she's looking at Abby. The Grandfather is looking quite happy to meet one of Abby's new friends named Kristy, who is dressed as a Mad Hatter for the party. May I add that Kristy looks ugly on this cover. My God, does Kristy have some fat ass cheeks to go with that outfit. I'm surprised she's not dressed as a Munchkin since she looks so fat and short on this cover.

My Memory on this book: How could I ever forget the Alice In Wonderland Theme party, as well as Abby's interesting family line. How could i not forget.  The sister hating other sister thing just interests me to no end. Reminds me of my own family life. It also reminds me of Roseanne's family life too.

 This is Roseanne Everybody

that's all i could remember, unless you count the Pikes in not going to Sea  City, as well as Dawn Schafer making a cameo in this book. Which is all i could remember as well. That's it.


Suzanne Weyn is the ghostwriter for this book, just to give you a heads up.

It all starts in Chapter 1  when Abby wakes up to find her suitcase lying on the floor and then realizing that she forgot to pack her suitcase for the family vacation to Long Island to visit their grandparents, who are hosting an anniversary party. And this year's theme is going to be Alice in Wonderland. And Abby promised her mom that she would be done packing by evening time, so that they could leave and make it to Long Island by the morning.
So Abby tries to hurry and pack things up by the evening, since she overslept after talking to Kristy Thomas all evening last night, and Anna comes in and notices she's not packed, and tries to help Abby out with her packing. But Abby refuses saying  that the clothes are fine just the way they are. But Anna doesn't buy it and insists on ironing out the clothes, to which Abby gives up and lets her straighten out her clothes neatly. And Anna's outfit consists of :
1.white shorts
2.blue t shirt
(that's it)
After Anna makes a comment about Abby's clothing, Anna also asks Abby if she would bring her inhaler with her, because the grandparents live in an area where there's lots of woods, and Abby's allergies are wild and out of control. That includes her asthma too. Anna basically is becoming a neat freak, and this causes Abby to be quite annoyed with her, because she's turning into a brunette  version of Dawn that's why.

Abby is really looking forward to meeting her relatives, because she haven't seen her relatives since the Bar Mitzvah thing in book 96. Plus its been long since Grandpa Morris's heart surgery and she really wants to see how Grandpa is doing.

Then Abby also wants to meet her Aunt Miriam, who is like the black sheep of the family, and who had a baby boy in Abby and The Mystery Baby, and who is also the cutest boy Abby has ever seen( Even cuter than Lynn Kishi Abby?). Plus Abby hasn't seen her Aunt Miriam in years, because Aunt Miriam has been estrangled from the family in a long time due to financial reasons, but in Abby and the Mystery Baby its because she had a harsh,controlling, and quite abusive boyfriend. (From what I've heard). Luckily Auntie Miriam went to the hospital to recover, and now everyone is basically cool to her. I guess the baby made up for the separation from her family.

Really though, the main reason why Abby wants to spend time with her Family is because it will be their first real vacation since their father's death, and Abby wants this one to be special and important also. That's it for Chapter 1 so far.

I love Abby. Her Kristy, Maryanne and probably Dawn are my total fave BSCers!
