Seedfolks- Paul Fleischman

Seedfolks
By Paul Fleischman

It starts only with dirt, sun, water, and a seed. Paul Fleischman's book captures the story of many different people. Some old, some young, some expecting a new life into their family. In a "dump", a little girl plants 3 bean seeds as a way of mourning. That little girl, is the whole reason that this community garden started. It's "knitted" together the community, in a sense through many different people.

RATING: EPIC!

Stargirl
By Jerry Spinelli


"Happy Birthday dear Leo, Happy Birthday to you!

Stargirl Caraway is a newcomer at Mica High. She gets all the attention in the lunchroom especially from Leo  Borlock, who will later come to know her very well. Leo, embarrassed and desperate, begs Stargirl to become something she can't: normal.
