Goodbye Stranger by Rebecca Stead, 289 pages
“Bridge is an accident survivor who's wondering why she's
still alive. Emily has new curves and an almost-boyfriend who wants a certain
kind of picture. Tabitha sees through everybody's games--or so she tells the
world. The three girls are best friends with one rule: No fighting. Can it get
them through seventh grade? This year
everything is different for Sherm Russo as he gets to know Bridge Barsamian.
What does it mean to fall for a girl--as a friend? On Valentine's Day, an unnamed high school
girl struggles with a betrayal. How long can she hide in plain sight? Each memorable character navigates the
challenges of love and change in this captivating novel.” This was a really
awesome book about friendships. I think
that this may be my favorite book by Stead so far and I’ve liked everything
she’s done. I highly recommend this for
elementary age kids.
