In this story of ups and downs, Sharon Draper shows how things can change in a blink of an eye.
Opinion:
November Blues explores the truth of becoming a pregnant teen or even pregnant at all. Before I read this book I thought pregnancy looked a lot easier than it seemed in movies or books. But this book didn't cover up all the negatives of being pregnant, it showed what it was like to struggle with money, with peers, with eating the right food, and deciding on what to do with your future. Overall, I think this book gives a truth and reality to becoming pregnant, losing what could have been, but finding something golden in the end.
