SRP 2013 REVIEW: I loved the book! It was super cool when Abby Carson got the chance to write letters to people half across the globe! Amira was super excited to find out that she had a pen pal in America!

SRP 2012 REVIEW: It was a different take on someone not doing well in school.It wasn't that they couldn't do the work-they just didn't feel like it. But I feel lucky knowing that I always try may best and my parents are there for me if I fall behind. This book is definitely not a snooze;I hate that kind of book-so I suggest reading it.

SRP 2011 REVIEW: this story is one of my favorites because it shows you don't have to live next door to someone to be friends with them
