I thought Stargirl was a very very boring book I gave the book a 1 because it was not very interesting. He wrote about a girl that was weired that is not a very good topic to write a book.

My name is Logan Brooks. I thought this book was horrible. It was the worst book I ever read. On a scale from 1 to 10, I give it a 1. The book was a little intresting, but I didnt like it.

I thought the book was very interesting. The book "Stargirl" can be related to many people at our school. Many people in the book have the same attitude as the people around school.That's what I thought about "Stargirl".
Amber Morris (04/01/04)

I think that Stargirl was an ok book. Some parts where good, but some parts were not that good. So I would give Stargirl a 3 on rating.
Samantha Brown (04/01/04)

I read Stargirl. I thought that is a really great book.I think this is what message you are sending to the readers to be kind to each other even though they are mean to you.
Blaire Copeland, 13 yrs. (04/01/04)

I think that almost anyone who reads Stargirl will enjoy it. There was a good story to it, and it was very well written. Jerry Spinelli is a brilliant writer, especially with this book. It deals with common problems in high schools, and makes a lot of sense. I never would have plucked it off of a shelf in a library, but I'm glad I read it.
