It only serves as a reminder of what happened on that awful day when she turned nine. She should be the happiest girl in the world. Her mother has remarried and she has a loving stepfather. She is popular at school and is dating the boy everyone else wishes they were dating. She has left behind Jennifer Harris- the fat, lisping, poor, crybaby her elementary school classmates cruelly ridiculed. I finished Sweethearts this evening and Sara Zarr has done it again! I could go on and on about how awesome it is, but you need to go buy this book.Īfter years of hardship, Jenna Vaughn is finally the person she always wanted to be. When I saw the cover for her newest novel, Sweethearts, besides having a sudden craving for sugar cookies, I immediately knew I had to read it. Zarr’s realistic look at high school and small-town politics hit home for me and I was so happy to see her win a National Book Award this past year. I read Sara Zarr’s Story of a Girl in one sitting. The Book Whisperer: Awakening the Inner Reader in Every Child by Donalyn Miller.
