FOR EVERY TEENAGE GIRL WITH A DREAM

How sad that this book is out of print. This was one of my favorite books as a teenager; I must have checked it out of our school library a hundred times! Now that I am a "grown-up" teaching teenagers, I appreciate this book even more. I was lucky enough to get an out-of-print copy, which I read and re-read as soon as I received it. For every intelligent teenage girl who has ever felt alone, out of place, or out of touch, this book is like a look in the mirror. The protagonist, Stephanie, is a unique and wonderful character, full of questions about life, relationships, prejudice, independence, and the future. The book addresses many relevant issues for young adults. I highly recommend it!
