This book is too much of a girly book. I thought it was boring.

I thought "Stargirl" was OK! It wasn't really my kind of book! I probably wouldn't get it out of the library! I thought some of the things were funny that Stargirl did but it just isn't a book that I would really actually enjoy!

I think "StarGirl" was a very good book! I think what Leo did was very sweet because, he accepted StarGirl no matter what anyone thought of her. StarGirl was a very WIERD person though. I liked this book but I just like things more exciting and not so much everyday things that go on at school!!!!

Stargirl is the best book by Jerry Spinelli.
Zack Gainey (04/01/04)

I really think the book stargirl is a very interesting book. the author has a very creative mind. if no one likes this book they are really crazy. I hope i can grow up annd wright books that interesting. Jerry Spinelli will make so much money if he comes out with a movie called stargirl.

I think that stargirl is a good book, it about a new girl at Mica school. she is different from everyone else. she had a rat named cinnomen that rode on her sholder. no one liked stargirl becouse she was weird.
Heather Chastain (04/01/04)
