In the book Stargirl a new girl comes to town and turns it upside down, with a ukelele and her pet rat. She captures the heart of a boy, Leo, and a whole school. But, when something unexpected happens she is asked to do something that can destroy her, become normal. I think it is a book that both boys and girls will enjoy!

I also read Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli.It is about a girl named Stargirl who is very unusual. She has a pet rat named Cinammon, and every lunchtime she walks around with a ukulele and sings “Happy Birthday” to other students. When Stargirl becomes unexpectedly popular, she is asked to join the cheerleading squad. But that is the downfall of her popularity. Because she cheers for her team and the opposing team, people, especially a mean girl name Hillari Kimble, start mistreating her. When she steals the heart of a boy called Leo Borlock, he asks her to do something way beyond her nature: be normal. Will Leo change his mind and let Stargirl be herself? Or will Stargirl be normal forever? To find out, read Stargirl.

Stargirl did plenty of crazy things, but I don’t blame her on them. Though it was silly, it was also kind of her to help and cheer for the opposite team. Leo shouldn’t have been ignorned just beacause he liked Stargirl. I also think it was silly she changed. But she loved Leo and would do anything for him. It was sad when she moved but was still in everyone’s hearts.
