Summary: A Face First
Review: A face first was a great book although it was very long. It is one of my favorite books and I have recommended it to other people. This book helped me understand what people have to go through when they get burned.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A good summer book to read
Review: About the book A Face First by Priscilla Cummings.
This book is about a twelve-year-old girl named Kelly. She was in a car accident with her mother. She was burned especially her face, and broke her leg. She went to the hospital and she was in surgery, while she was in surgery she was trying to remember what happened to her. She could remember some parts but the rest was unclear. When she woke up after three days she was very weak. She had to do exercises to get her body moving again. She has to wear a mask because her face is burnt. Who understands her?
This book is good because it makes it realize how Kelly felt and had to face many challenges that normal people wouldn?t.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Incredibly Wonderful Book!
Review: I absolutely love this book! It's so realistic and true, and it puts you right in the story. It is all about a 6th grade girl named Kelley Breann who gets in a horrible car accident, and gets scars a burns all over her face. She has to wear a mask and stockings so the scars won't be as obvious, but hates looking the way she is. Finally she learns that her friends still love her as she is and she is still the same Kelley Breann inside. I love this book and couldn't put it down. I hope all of you consider reading it!

Summary: Afraid to Remember -- a review by Lisel, age 10
Review: It happens one day in early spring. Kelley is on the way back from school. In less than a moment, a speeding truck crashes into her mother's small car, and Kelley is pulled out, just a moment before the whole thing bursts into flames. She is rushed to the hospital and there she is taken care of for a long time. But one day, the worst is announced to her. She'll have to wear a plastic face mask for almost a year! How will she stand being out in public? All those staring people, even her friends will probably avoid her. But soon another worry seeps into her mind. It's much, much worse than the mask. Kelley is afraid to remember, but begins to know, that it is true. It was the truck driver's fault and he was the only one to blame. Wasn't he?

I enjoyed this book because the author made it realistic. It was about things that could really happen to anybody. The author was great about making the book seem interesting, even though a lot of the book was about Kelley just sitting in her bed and thinking. This is a great story of a girl who suffers the pain of knowing that this is reality and that she will never wake up and find that it's only a terrible nightmare or a story in the newspaper about someone else.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A real heartwarmer!
Review: This book is about a young girl named Kelley. After a terrible accident Kelley has to go through painful treatments. She also has to wear a mask to help her face. She worries what everyone will think of her but realizes they like Kelley for the person on the inside. This book was good and sort of sad at first. But towards the end when Kelley truly discovers herself, it makes you feel really good.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Dramatic
Review: This book is probably one of the best books I've ever read. This girl has faced a dramatic acciden in wich she was burned in. She is so frightened to show her face to people because of what the burns look like. This book shows all of the opsticles she has over come. I think that this book is both dramatic and inspiring. I would recomend this to everyone

Summary: very interesting!!
Review: This is a very interesting book and very well written. A 12-year old child named Kelley is in a car crash. She finds a wonderful talent of hers. Deep down inside she learns to not be afraid of people making fun of her. It feels like Kelley is your friend telling you her secret thoughts. This is one of my favorite books and is hard to put down. I truly recommend it!
