As a fifth grade teacher I think this is a GREAT read aloud. It deals with growing up, fitting in, and loving yourself. You can't go wrong.

sometimes, i think spinelli s stalking me or something.~stargirl-i try to stand out & be myself ~loser-i'm like the only 1 in the 6th grade at school that isn't good at any sports ~maniak magee-parents almost died&i don't have many friends Did i just describe nyself as a loser? oh, well. the book is really good, though.
