A great story on how the pressures of high school can make you realize what is important, and what isn't.

Stargirl, by Jerri Spinelli was one of the best books I ever read. The plot is in a smalltown in Arizona and the people acted the same way they would in New York City or anyother place in the country. As this book is about the theme of friendship Stargirl Caraway has to face some challenges in life that she can't show her inner personality, until Leo goes out with her and everything changes. I really recommend this book and anyother of Jerri Spinelli's books.

I thought this was one the most rememerable book I ever read. It involves somewhat of an adventure mixed with romance.

Oh My God! I loooved this book! It was so awesome. Everything he wrote about I felt as I read it. It was so real to life. It dealt with all the peer pressure and stuff to be like everyone else and how people who choose to be different are sometimes put down and ignored for it. I loved every single page and everytime I read it I get sucked into it and can't put it down.
I think Jerry Spinelli did an EXCELLENT job writing this book to say the least.. It was so... enchanting and I think that if everyone in our world was like Stargirl Caraway it would be a MUCH happier place..
I loved Stargirl and I recommend it to anyone who loves enchanting tales about love, adventure and how hard it can be to live in our society. Its a deeefinite must-read!~
