SUMMARY: This book is set in 1981. This book is all about a middle school girl who is going through changes in her life, and she is unsure how to cope with a lot of them. This book covers having to deal with bullies, loosing friends, and parents fighting (which I think can be the hardest). I think that this book could be a good one for middle school girls to read because of all the topics covered in here, even though it is set in the early 80's. This is a great book for girls who may wonder how to cope with some things, but not want to ask in fear of being bullied or rejected. By reading this book they could learn a thing or two before leaving middle school. This is a great book for all children to read, though it is 99% of the time best for girls.
