Camilla Reghelini Rivers has written a thoughtful story about the difficulties of being a teenager... Teen readers can sympathize with Lizzie and see themselves in this high spirited character. The pages contain comedy, tears and the wonder of finding a new friend... Real life! Recommended.--Elaine Fuhr CM: Canadian Review of Materials (03/09/2012)
