This is great. Reading books for kids as an adult is such joy. This was sweet and full of adventure

Sadly disappointed. I was expecting so much more from this book.

I've read this book before, but I re-read it recently. I still relate to a teenager who wants to do something with their life, but everyone else around them is saying they can't. It was a good book about finding your feet and your own confidence.

I just reread this book for the first time since I was a young teenager and really wondered how it would hold up. So wholesome! Very endearing. Feminist in a very 70s sort of “Free to Be You and Me” kind of way— a little dated and yet— not irrelevant to today’s world. So many of the details were familiar enough that I realize I must’ve read it a dozen times as a kid. (If anyone knows where I can get a fire lizard egg, @ me.)
