I really liked this book. It was very interesting to read! I didnt want to put the book down after we got to the good parts of the book like when Leo started to like stargirl! The only thing i didnt like about the book was that Leo didnt ask stargirl to the Octotillo ball. I think she would have stayed if he wanted to go with her. He didnt and she left, then it tells what happens to all the other people but not stargirl. I mean the book wasnt called boigraphy of the students of Mica high!!!

This is one of the best books I have ever read. It has the qualities of a very good book also. I like this book because it tells you how different and unique people can be. That is my review on this book.

I feel that Stargirl is an excellent book due to it challenging your mind. The book made me not want to put it down. It is very enchanting because it makes your mind wonder rapidly. I feel Stargirl is deserving of recognition and well deserving of a 5!

I think that Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli was a really good book. I think that it was so good because it had many different themes to book. I think that the main theme was not to think about what other people think and just to be yourself. I think that friends, like Leo did, should except you for who you are and not talk to anyone just because they might be different. I think that Stargirl was a really good book and I recomend this book to anyone.

I think that star girl was a really great book.It was overall intresting and fun to read.I really think that stargirl is a book that sends out a very special message, Everyone is diffrent and if somepne doesnt act like others are dress or try to be like other doesnt mean you have to treat them wrong. Everyone is diffrent in their own way. I think Jerry Spinelli is a great author and I think stargirl was one of the best books I have ever read.

I think that the book Stargirl was an awesome book. I don't get interested in many books but i got interested in this book. I would like to read this book again another time, because it is funny. This book was interesting to me because it had to do with people closer to my age. I don't like books with alot of old people as characters.

I think that Stargirl was a very good book. At times it was boring but it just led to more interesting things.
