This book is ok because it tells about what had happened in 1968. The main character, Cherie serenely doesn't act as if she is thirteen. She gets afraid of the dark and still plays with dolls. No one I who is thirteen is like that. Perfect for girls ages nine and up.

This book is about a girl named Cherie and her family. Cherie is a normal girl, she rides bike, goes to school, and has friends. Then one day when she gets the job to deliver the newspaper and everything changes. The news gets worse and worse everyday. Then one day a girl just like Cherie goes missing and Cherie thinks that might happen to her. She cries more and more about it. On top of all this news, her mom is having a baby and her family is going to move.

Will the news ever get better? Where will her family move too? Will her new family member be a boy or a girl? reading "Outside In" will help.

This was possibly the worst book I've ever read, simply because there was no plot. It's 192 pages of nothing. The main character, a young girl named Cherie, seems to express few or no emotions throughout the book, mainly, it seems to be, because not much happens. All the characters seem two-dimensional, with no personality of their own. When her close neighbours move, she seems confused about her emotions relating to their son, and never really seems to resolve those either. At best, don't buy it, and at worst, check it out from a library.
