I have just recently started twelve. Even though I have recently started this book, I feel it already is one of my favorite books. I love reading a book that you cannot put it down, this book fits that category. Winnie has a big character to her. Turning eleven was not that great for her, but turning twelve is going to be HUGE! Winnie wants to be herself not a made up girl, with makeup and lipstick. Her old friend Sandra was that kind of girl. I feel Winnie is a strong girl, she has been through lots of strong arguments between her friends. I would recommend this book to girls my age. I really am enjoying this book, and I would hope that someone else would to. The cover of this book tells the story of Winnie. It really makes the book and the cover come together and make a great story. I take a glance at the cover every once in a while to think about how Winnie really looks and feels. I feel the author did a great job putting together a story of a teenage girl and her life. I really like to read stories about girls my age. Other books that are fantasy, I am not really interested in. I also think that the author made Winnie and her friends very descriptive of there personal features. I hope you read this book sometime and think of the things I said and the things you think. Hope you like it.
