11 Birthdays by Wendy Mass

From chapters.ca:
Turning eleven is normally something to be excited about. And, normally, Amanda would be, except that her mom just lost her job; her older sister Kylie is impossible; her best friend has decided that trying out for the gymnastics team will pave their way to popularity (even though Amanda can't do a back handspring to save her life); and her other best friend (well, ex- best friend) Leo, with whom she shares a birthday, is having a separate birthday party this year for the first time since, well, forever. When Amanda wakes up the day after her birthday, glad to have it behind her, she can't understand why her mom and dad are singing "Happy Birthday" to her. She thinks it's a joke. Or is it?
