"This is a delightful movie about issues that will resonate with kids. It will also provide families with a segue into meaningful conversations about issues like self-esteem, dating, social status, and peer pressure. &amp;quot;Dear Dumb Diary&amp;quot; is product of Walden Family Theater, a joint endeavor between the Hallmark Channel and sponsors Walmart and Procter &amp;amp; Gamble that's intended to provide families with quality entertainment for viewers of all ages. Not an easy task, to be sure, but they hit the nail on the head. Jamie's struggles with her self-image will sound familiar to a lot of viewers \u2013- kids and parents alike -\u2013 and the process by which she learns to cope with her insecurities has value across the board.\nWhat makes this story so appealing \u2013- besides the creative incorporation of the books' illustrations and the breakout music video sequences -\u2013 is that Jamie is no saint. She breaks some rules, hangs with a questionably influential BFF who gets her involved in sketchy schemes, and turns her own unhappiness into vengeance against an unwitting classmate. In other words, she's relatable. But each incident forces her to take a good hard look at her actions, and eventually she comes to appreciate who she is, which helps her relate better to others."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
