Ginny Moon
by Benjamin Ludwig
As evident by how quickly I finished this book, I loved "Ginny Moon."
Told from the perspective of a 14 year-old girl, Ginny, with Autism, the author did a great job capturing her voice. If you want thrill, this is not the book for you ; however, the somewhat predictable way events unfolded suited Ginny's character and story perfectly. What the book lacks in suspense it makes up for ten-fold in character development.
Ginny was taken from her drug addict mom when she was 9 years-old. She leaves behind an unsafe home, malnutrition, and her Baby Doll. Though Ginny knows her Forever Parents that adopted her are keeping her safe, she needs to go back to Gloria to check on her Baby Doll.
Her Forever Parents try (Maura, in my opinion, doesn't try hard enough) to take care of Ginny and support her. Unexpectedly, they are able to finally conceive a child of their own, and Ginny starts to be viewed as more of a nuisance than a daughter. Thus making Ginny's desire to go back to her own Baby Doll (where she belongs) even stronger.
