This single paperback volume contains the first two adventures of The Diary of Janie Ray: The Impossible Medallion and The Day My Mom Got Grounded!

Eleven year old Janie Ray just got a new diary from her mom. At first, she writes all about the private jokes she shares with her best friend Sheila, and the grief she gets from her little brother RJ, who always gets into her stuff and never gets in trouble.

But then, one morning, she realizes that the mysterious inscription on the old medallion she found when she was seven is written in the secret language she made up with Sheila just this year!

Join Janie as she explores the hidden mysteries of the medallion, while figuring out how to deal with Marcia the Snob, RJ, and even her mother - who always looks nice and doesn't understand how hard things can be when you're eleven.
