Jerry Spinelli's "Love"

Book Block

This book is the final one in Stargirls life. The series is only two books long which makes it a great series, jk its the character, plot, vocabulary, and most of all the authors imagination that makes a good series.

Stargirl is one of my favorite people; because she is extremely free spirited with a mix of down to earth lifestyle. If I was to live in a book as a character I would be pleased to live as Stargirl. Dootsie is her best friend at the age of 6 and a terror to their little town. Kids say the darndest things but Dootsie acts it out rather than speaking it.

Betty Lou at first may come off as crazy and a measly person, but as the pages turn more quickly she becomes someone you imagine eating donuts with on a regular bases for the sake of entertainment.

I like it when authors keep the main characters true to themselves and Jerry Spinelli did a wonderful job by keeping Stargirl as who she really was without taking the word "love" in vain. Hats off to you Mr. Spinelli very few authors have your audacity to be different about love.

I would rate this 9 out of 10. Easy read, for ages 10-12.

Grandpa: The cold dont bug me much, plus I have to pee.

Justin: You pee outside?

Grandpa: I never piss in the toilet, its bad karma!

Hope your ready for the family your marrying into, Dear ;)
