Starring Sally J. Freedman as herself !
By: Judy Blume




        This book is a winner because , to me it has real life situations, andit shows how you can basically overcome any obstacles in your way, and you don't always need a parents helping hand, to guide, you in the right direction. if you are looking for a real life adventure, true feelings, and a hint of humor here and there. Then I recommend you read this book, and I gaurantee you will enjoy it !!!

                                                                           Summary
          Sally moves from her small town in New Jersey to a large city in Miami Beach. She has to move with her mother, grandmother, and brother ( Douglas ), away from family and friends. But when Sally gets there she meets a lot of friends, gets to know her neighbourhood and discovers a suspicious man looking like Hitler in disguise. So they are on a mission to investigate !

                                                                             Favourite Scene
      My favourite scene in this book would probably be when Sally was in line trying to win a contest; All the girls were lined up to try on Margaret O' Briens ballet slippers she wore in her movie. The girl that fit it perfectly got a chance to fly to Hollywood to film a movie with her. I like this because the author gave Sally so much energy and excitement that I felt like I was also in line right beside Sally J. Freedman!!!
