This review is from: True Friends (Carmen Browne) (Paperback)
I brought this book for my 12 year old neice as a token gift. She absolutely loved it - simply could not put it down and was anxious to read the second book in the series.

True Friends,
By OOSA Online Book Club "O.O.S.A. Gets It Read!" (World Wide Web, USA) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE)
This review is from: True Friends (Carmen Browne) (Paperback)
Carmen Brown is about to enter the fifth grade when the family learns that dad's job was relocating. To say that she was sad would be putting it lightly. Lonely and feeling like an outsider, not only was her old school where her friends were, they were all the same race. Carmen wants to make friends, she just doesn't know how. Eventually Carmen lets go of her fears and steps away from her comfort zone. Will her new school mates be receptive?I really enjoyed `True Friends' by Stephanie Perry Moore. I was able to relate to this story because I've been the new girl in school and it's not much fun. Reviewed by: Marshae Pre-teen Reviewer 4.5 stars
5.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: True Friends (Carmen Browne) (Paperback)
The author weaves true to life situations together in a way I believe preteens can relate to and find solutions for this perplexing stage of life.
