This book teaches students that it is okay to be yourself and you don't have to try and fit in. This book would be great for a 4th grade class. I would have the students fill out a graphic organizer as they read the book. They could also pull out vocabulary words from the text.

Very cool.The main character, Stargirl, is a little unusual. She cheers for both teams during basketball games, attends the...

Nobody wants to be ignored forever, nobody wants to be hurt by others and I can also imagine he was embarr...

Stargirl is one of those books that is so pretty to read, you just want to underline stuff. then you realize that if you started underlining stuff, you'd end up with the whole book underlined and a lot of dead pens. Parts like this "She laughed when there was no joke. She danced when there was...

And then I tossed it in the cardboard box labelled donations. I did not enjoy this book. It is dull, plain and simple. It c...
