Serious thinking not withheld

As the first book in the Twelve Candle's Club Series Becky's Brainstorm does a good job of setting the tone for those that will follow. Becky and her three friends; Tricia, Jess, and Cara; form an odd jobs club during summer vacation. Becky is desperate to earn enough money prevent her family from having to move to another state. Many hilarious hi-jinks follow and lead to a perfect conclusion. Schulte's theology is evident throughout the book as Becky is led to seek and trust in God for her future. Clearly aimed at 8-12 year old Evangelical girls this book succeeds at blending life and spirituality without becoming too preachy. The English level is excellent and obviously the author knows what she is doing in writing serial novels for this genre.

this is the first great book in a great series

the first time i read this book i was becky's age. i understood where she was coming from and loved every minute i spent reading it. it hung onto every word and refused to put the book down. it taught me that when i wanted something, i needed to help make it happen, but it all took prayer.

This is the best Christian series I have ever read!
