Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli

Why: first book of the book club my kid has started with me!

When: start 3/5/13 finish 3/10/13

How: as an ebook on my iPad (she's reading it in hard copy-- of which she has two. I bought her one yesterday and she also checked it out from the library at her school!)

Thoughts: It's hard to believe this is the first Spinelli book I've read, but it is. I think that there will be more after this. My kid made it halfway through the book in only one day.

Loved this. The way that people responded to Stargirl really showed a lot about who they are themselves. I loved her personality and her confidence in who she is. If only more of us could be so brave to be ourselves.

Review haiku:

Ukelele, rat
long skirts, birthday songs, cheer all
We should be Stargirl
