Summary: Wonderful story about evolving friendships
Review: I enjoyed reading about Winnie and her life experiences. It really made me remember back to my childhood, and my 5th-6th grade years in school. Those can be really difficult times. I think that readers can really relate to Winnie and both the good and difficult times that she experiences. I enjoyed the interesting stories and adventures that happen to Winnie each month of her 11th year of life. As an elementary school teacher myself, I would highly reccomend this book to my students. It can really help students understand how relationships do grow and change over time.

Summary: A fun, heartfelt read
Review: Lauren Myracle has a way of understanding relationships; how they work, what hurts, what brings laughter. This captures relationships at that moment when everyone is changing --but changing to different degrees and in different ways. It's a compelling, fun, silly and serious book, and I loved it.
