Product Description

From the Back Cover

THE GIRL WHO THINKS FOR HERSELF IS ANASTASIA KRUPNIK

She’s a crackle-brained, fizzle-headed, freckle-faced dynamo who usually knows exactly where she’s going.

With her future hurtling towards her, Anastasia must think of a career – an exciting and glamorous one, of course. What better than modelling – all glitz and swank? But first, Anastasia must acquire poise, confidence and … maturity.

“Fast and unfailingly funny”
GUARDIAN

5.0 out of 5 stars In my opinion the wittiest book in the series 2 Aug 2001
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
Anastasia's Chosen Career is my favourite book in the Anastasia series. This is because she has developed as a character and the humour in the book can subsequently be at its sharpest. Her outlook on life is familiar to anyone who has experienced early teenagers. H3er family is completely convincing, and their dialogue adds to the hilarity of the book. I recommend this book to everyone interested in humorous children's fiction. However, the books can be fully appreciated after the age of about eleven. A wonderful book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Anastasia: Glamorous Model Or Bookstore Owner? 1 April 2000
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I enjoyed this book because Anastasia follows her dream...sort of. At the beginning, she's not even sure if she wants to be a bookstore owner...but is considering modeling... I've always liked the Anastasia books, such as Anastasia at This Address and Anastasia on Her Own, but this book has an artistic flare all its own. I haven't yet read another book when a girl changes this much from beginning to end. She gets something out of going to the other side of Boston, but not at all what she expected!

5.0 out of 5 stars Anastasia's Chosen Career 3 May 2001
A Kid's Review - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Have you ever thought about what you would like to be when you grow up? Anastasia Krupnik is a 13-year girl (the main character in this story) who wants to be a fashion model. Her dad, Dr. Krupnik wants her to own her own bookstore. If you read this book, you will learn that Anastasia has many funny adventures and meets new friends. Like riding the bus into the city by herself and meeting Henry Peabody. To find out if Anastasia will be a model or a bookstore owner you should read this book. Take my word for it this book is funny, but you make the decision.
