librarybonanza 's review for:
This One Summer
by Mariko Tamaki
Age: Middle School
Tough Issue: Pregnancy
An interesting look at pregnancy from two points of view: an accidental pregnancy in a teen girl and a mother that is infertile. What gives the story even more intrigue is that these situations are seen through the eyes of a middle school girl, a protagonist whom the reader is not supposed to agree. She is someone who has a really hard time empathizing with the two women and instead selfishly judges both women without knowing the real story.
This should definitely be discussed with a group and I'm so sorry that I missed my Book Club's discussion!
