This book is a good book to read. In my class we read it and it was great. It was very interesting and unpredictable. Stargirl is the best and most outgoing character in the book. This boy named Leo falls in love with her and everyone makes fun of him and her. This book is constantly changing . I would recommend it to anyone.

I thought Stargirl was a great book! One of the best books i've ever read! I really learned a lot from it. I was suprised at the way it ended. I just could'nt believe that Leo never got to see Stargirl ever again. I think Stargirl is one of those books that even after you have read it you still go back and think of all the things she did for everybody but her. I do anyways. I've never known a Stargirl before but i really hope that I might be able to meat one, one day.


Stargirl was a very good book and I hope other people would read it to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh yeah I think the book could be more specific about the other characters instead of just Leo and stargirl. And the book had a very good ending

Stargirl is a great book. You should read it. I've read that many people have said they want Spinelli to write a sequel to the book. I think that's a horrible idea. When there is too much of a good thing and you're just trying to add on, it cheapens everything. Stargirl is a wonderful book but NO sequel(s) should be written!!!

I loved Stargirl! I recommended it to all my friends, and they all loved it to! I felt as if the author wasn't just telling you a story, but some tips on life and on the binding chains of popularity. I love this book. every one should read it!

I really like this book. It was a real patterned. It had all the unseen aspects of adolescence that catch your eye and make you want more. I would thoroughly recommend it.
