A review by bent
The Bad Times of Irma Baumlein by Trina Schart Hyman, Carol Ryrie Brink

4.0

I think we picked up this book when I was a kid from a book sale. I quite enjoyed it. I liked how Irma told one lie to try to fit in with her friends and it led to a huge quagmire of confusion. Irma was kind of a neat character, and it was gratifying to see her go from being a bit of an outcast loner at the beginning of the book to finding friends and being accepted by the end.
