Most eleven-year-olds are trying to deal with starting middle
school. Anna Smudge is Manhattan's top psychiatrist. "Anna
Smudge: Professional Shrink" follows Anna as she gets her start as
a child psychiatrist--not a psychiatrist specializing in children, but a
psychiatrist that is a child. She finds in her sessions that all is not
easy for life as a prodigy, confronting blackmailers, difficult
patients, covered-up government conspiracies, and way too much homework
for any child to handle. Fortunately, she has her friends to support
her! "Anna Smudge: Professional Shrink" is deftly written and
highly recommended for community library young adult fiction
collections.
