LitPick Review
I read the book Mallory in the Spotlight by Laurie Friedman. The main characters in the book are Mallory and Mary Ann. When their school decides to put on the play, Annie both girls try out for a part. Mallory wins the part of Annie but Mary Ann does not get any part at all. Mary Ann begins ignoring Mallory. Mallory is sad and doesn't know what to do about the situation. Two girls in the class begin to be nice to Mallory. They act like they are her new best friends. Mallory sends them an email explaining how sad she is that Mary Ann is ignoring her. They send the email on to Mary Ann. Mary Ann becomes upset and Mallory get embarrassed. In the end Mary Ann and Mallory work out their problems and promise to stay best friends.
Opinion:
Mallory in the Spotlight is a good book and I could barely put it down because of the excitement. It was well written and I wanted to know what would happen next. My favorite part is when Mallory and Mary Ann become friends again. Jealousy can ruin a friendship. These girls work out their problems but that does not always happen in real life. Mallory in the Spotlight is the fourteenth book in the series.You don't have to read the first ones to understand this one but now, I want to read them all. I think that girls seven through twelve will like this book.
