About this listen

Author Elizabeth Atkinson’s debut novel for middleschoolers was included in the Bank Street College of Education’s Best Children’s Books of 2009. I, Emma Freke tells of one girl’s search for her identity. Smart and shy, Emma is as close to normal as her family gets. Still, she has a terrible time fitting in at school—and things only get worse when Emma attends her family reunion. Soon, she realizes that she’s better off being herself than someone else’s Freke.

The story, the telling, and the adventure were all worth my time. I appreciated the novel, and expect my children will enjoy it too.

I thought the characters were lots of fun. The tone was cheerful and upbeat. This book is definitely a feel-good book.

The thing that stood out most for me was the idea that just following others is not the best way to live your life.
