A realistic peek at the HIGH DRAMA OF HIGH SCHOOL! Funny, sad, and a great read!

This book not only "swooshed" me back in time to
my own high school days, but it also brought
memories of my children's high drama of high
school. How little reactions (both mental and
physical) have changed since then ... and I confess,
that was a looooooong time ago.

Although Storky's a male, and I'm a female, this
author brought not only Storky's feelings but the
feelings of all the characters into this story ... in
funny and pathetic ways of which we can all relate.

And, YES, like most teen boys from time immemorial,
there's the inevitable Miss Popular for Storky to lust
after, an insensitive father ... and the other high
school problems that will trigger the memories of all
who read this well-written book. This is a page-
turner for teens and for their parents and
grandparents, also. I could see the "comic tragedy"
of teens shining through the pages AND, in hind-
sight, the healthy learning experiences for Storky
and the realistic characters in this book.

I recommend this book for ALL AGES. It was a
nostalgic trip down Memory Lane for me. A great
job, Debra Garfinkle! Keep 'em coming; you have
found your niche.
