Book Recommendation Are You There God, It's Me Margaret
"Are you there God, its me Margaret" is about a girl who moves from the city of New York to the suburbs of New Jersey and is going through changes. On moving day, she hears a knock on the door and it is a girl from down the street named Nancy Wheeler. She asks Margaret if she would like to go run in the sprinklers with her at her house. Margaret asks her mom and she walks down the street with Nancy talking about school and classes. They both find out that they will be in the same class together. Once they get to Nancy's house, Nancy lets Margaret borrow one of her swimming suits. Margaret changes into the suit right in front of Nancy and Nancy realizes that Margaret is not as mature as she is. After they go in the sprinklers, Nancy walks Margaret home and asks if she would like to join her secret club of girls. Margaret isn't to sure what the club is but she is willing to join and find out. Nancy also mentions: NO SOCKS! On the first day of school, they have their first club meeting and start talking about boys and more girlish things. They also try to think of a good name for their club: SGCT-Sixth Grade Cu-ties. Everyone hated it. Someone else suggested MJB- Miles J. Benedict (their school) Still not good. Nancy thought of PTS-Pre-Teen sensations. They loved it! in the club they also made up a boy journal. Every week, you put in boys names that you like and pass your journal around to everyone. Every week, it has to be a different name though. Margaret also goes on trips with her grandma. But her with her friends an school, how is she going to be caught up with all of it? Will she choose her friends or family??? By: Mrs. Cheese
