Stargirl
Stargirl is a book by Jerry Spinelli. It was a very quick and easy read. At first I didn’t really like it, but I liked it better as I read more of it. I thought some parts were a little weird and although I think I liked it in the end, it wasn’t my favorite.
Stargirl is a new 10th grade girl in Mica High School in Arizona, and has been home schooled all her life up until now. She does the strangest things, like playing the ukulele at lunch and carrying a pet rat around with her. At first, the people at her school reject her, thinking she is some kind of insane alien. But they soon learn to respect her being different and even start to like her. But then things start to go wrong and Stargirl is staring to be ignored by the whole school. Only two people talk to her, and they are the narrator of the story, Leo, and her friend Dori Dilson. No one really knew what to expect from her, but in the end, will other people finally accept her again?
