Stargirl is a book that i randomly chose from the library not reading too often i was amazed when i read this book i related to it in so many ways and it made me open my eyes and look closer at things then i ever had before. I never noticed things the way that i see them now and it was becuase of this book that i can now do so. It has inspired me so much. I will be at the 2008 olympics in the Australian team.

I absolutely loved this book! Not only are there lessons taught throughout this book but it beautifully displays the pressure and "unspoken" rules of highschool that determine a person's status. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who knows what it's like to be singled out or picked on.

I really enjoyed the book and listening to it on tape was so fun with John Ritter reading.

Its Grrrrreat!

I thought it was one of the best books I have ever read. It showed me that you shouldn't care about what people think of you, like Stargirl. I don't like reading that much, but this book was so good.
