The girls in our Mother/Daughter book group choose this book. I had no desire to read it. If you have a tween, this is for you! We read it with So B. It...another story of a girl gaining her independence...

It was a pretty good read. The covers looks a bit babyish but the story was wonderful.The mother daughter gap and how they try to fill it is what I liked a lot.Plus it is quite humorous at some points.Good work!
