Stargirl on School Shelving!

I would argue that Stargirl is a perfect book for middle school readers. Though it's hard to add such a book that isn't going to capture a full audience, I believe the lessons to be learned throughout are perfectly appropriate for this age setting. If ever a time to learn such a lesson it is during middle school, where all of these ideas start to really snowball. We all have faced many a time the battle within to conform, or be ourselves. Always knowing the right thing to do, we don't necessarily base our decisions on that feeling. Stargirl is a perfect example of a Hero undefined to say the least. The perfect book to make you think about your future actions based on prior experience in these areas. A great lesson to be learned by all!
