Annie's Baby: The Diary of Anonymous, a Pregnant Teenager

Annie Baby is an amazing story. About a girl who falls in love with someone who just wanted to use her.Danny the guy she met got her pregant after he got pregant he just lift her,with a baby. Danny didnt want anything to do with her.

As an adult, I found the book to be extrememly predictable, but teen girls, ages 13 to 16, love the book and become hooked on it as soon as they read the back cover. I frequently have to replace the copies that I keep in my classroom for SSR time. I always say that I am not going to loan them out, but then when a girl that HATES to read begs me to loan her the book because she's hooked on it....well, I give in every time. For so many of my female students, it has been the book that started them on the road to reading for pleasure. For that reason alone, I love this book and give it 5 stars! (OK, I accidentally clicked on 4 stars, and now it won't let me change to 5 stars!)

Annie's baby is an intesting book. In the book Snnie mets a boy named Danny. All that Danny wanted Annie was to use her for his own needs. At first he makes her think that he does like her, but it was all and act.Annie had a baby a had no idea how to take care of it. Danny didnt want any thing to do with her after she had the baby. She needed his help.

The book is very good, because it is very real. However she takes the easy way out, and however good it may have been for the child, it is still disappointing. I do applaud Annie and I can only hope that her young self truly made the right decisions, and hope that she left everything open, a child has the right to know that she has been adopted and to know the birth parents!

Brought to you from the author of Go Ask Alice... yeah, right.

This is probably not the first great hoax in publishing history, but I'm sure it's one of the most successful.

In spite of the fact that the actual source of this book has long been revealed and known, the publishing company continues to brazenly assert that this is a genuine document. It's as ridiculous as the continuing insistence that The Amityville Horror is a true story, too.

It should take any literate adult no more than one and one half pages to determine that this is neither the language nor the syntax of an adolescent/young adult.

It is a known fact that this shameless propoganda was the work of Beatrice Sparks, a Mormom activist who created an entire series of these books, in which children are destroyed by the evils of homosexuality, premarital sex, drug abuse, satanism, etc.

Without diminishing what positive impact this book, or any of the others, may have had on impressionable youth, and without condemning its good intentions (is anyone in favor of having AIDS?), these books are complete rubbish.

Like Mr. Frey, the intentions are not the point.

The point is that these books are being published as nonfiction.

And they are lies.
