A Kid's Review
I think this is THE best BSG book there is so far. it was definately the most intense. i loved reading this book. personally, it's my all time fav. it's a story about 5 girls who go through hard times, literally painful times, and happy times. you get some great laughs in there, too. it's "inspirational".

BSG Rox!, March 24, 2006
A Kid's Review
I completely agree with Rachel. This is definitely the best BSG book by far. The situations are more difficult, but Annie Bryant stays true to the realistic plots that she writes so well and you feel like the things the characters go through could really happen.
Although it was a bit strange being introduced to Chelsea, an overweight girl who is very lonely in her back-of-the-classroom-alone type of life, this late in the series, I enjoyed her presence in this book. I hope we see more of her.
I also liked that we learned about a few more characters. Basically the only people we have known would be (obviously) the BSG, all of the parents and teachers, Dillon, Yurt, Trentini twins, Nick, the "Queens of Mean" Anna and Joline, and Kiki Underwood. It seems like quite a few people that I've typed it all, LOL, but really, it's not, and I'm glad that we learned about a few more people, even if their introduction to the story was brief.
One quick question--every single Beacon Street Girl was asked to dance (excluding Avery, of course, for reasons that you'll find out once you read the book)! Is it really that easy for the Abigail Adams Junior High girls? Uh, probably not. Just a thought.
Anyhow, in a nutshell, the Beacon Street Girls are awesome. Great for relaxing over spring break.

Lake Rescue, June 15, 2010
A Kid's Review
Lake Rescue, a realistic fiction by Annie Bryant, is a fun read! The Beacon Street Girls, Avery, Katani, Isabel, Maeve, and Charlotte are headed off to Lake Rescue on a school field trip. The girls figure out how hard it is to survive in the woods. When walking through, one of the groups get stuck in the middle of the forest. While a friend of the Beacon Street Girls named Chelsea learns something new about her, Maeve runs into a little problem and injures herself. Since the woods are a great place of nature and fun, I recommend this book for people who love the outdoors.
