Dear Dumb Diary is a series of children's novels by Jim Benton. Each book is written in the first person view of a middle school girl named Jamie Kelly. The series is published by Scholastic in English and Random House in Korean. Film rights to the series have been optioned by the Gotham Group.
Critical reception for the series has been mixed to positive, with Publishers Weekly writing that the lead character "makes the occasional funny observation, more often her stabs at humor miss their mark or are so protracted that the comic moment fizzles". A reviewer for the Indian Express compared My Pants are Haunted! to the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series, saying that fans of Wimpy Kid would like the series.
A film version had been filmed in Salt Lake City, Utah, starring Emily Alyn Lind and Mary-Charles Jones.
The movie premiered on Hallmark Channel on September 6, 2013 and is now on Netflix and other streaming services.
