Read this book in middle school. I re-read it 25 years later for nostalgia's sake. It's an OK coming of age story about a girl facing change, losing her friend, standing up for the underdog, etc. But the ending was a little ridiculous and sets a bad example for young kids trying to fit in.

Basically, it signifies a very specific time in YA lit. The early '90s. It doesn't stand the test of time.

Ruokatunnilla luettua, jälleen kerran nuoruuden lempikirjoja. Tämä ei ollut niin hyvä kuin muistelin ja tarinan moraalinen opetuskin on hieman amerikkalainen, jos ei ole suosittu suositun kaveripiirin keskuudessa, ei ole mitään. Muistaakseni kirjailijan muut lukemani kirjat olivat parempia.
