This novel would probably appeal to girls around the age of twelve. The characters, dialogues and actions are realistic. Secret Sister is a program at this school a bit like our Book Buddies to encourage friendships. Can you imagine leaving notes to a secret sister at school? Darci is assigned to send notes to Crystal, a popular student and tv star. But will Crystal want to be friends with Darci once sh finds out who she is? And, who is sending Darci notes? It seems to be someone very strange. Can you work it out?
This blog contains reviews and comments on children's books which I own, have read, and would like to share. I look for books at markets and opportunity shops. They are cleaned up, covered and read. Then I take them to the classroom for students to read. Students can borrow the books at any time. Many books are also from my personal library, especially the Youth Fiction. Students can preview some of them on this blog. Now, I am also on the lookout for great new releases for my grandson Archie.
I really loved this book. Crystal is a TV star, with some acting parents. When Darci is picked to be her secret sister, she is very happy. But, who is Darci's secret sister? This is a great read, but I didn't find it very exciting, except near the end. It was slow moving, but it kept you wanting more.
