Thanks to all who responded. I think once she finishes this book, I'll ask her to do me a favor and try Anne of Green Gables. I do think she tries to please me whereas her single mom is busy and tends to bark orders and the girl barks back! I never get that kind of treatment (thankfully). I don't ask too many questions about school, so I'd guess she's an average student. Oh, and as for the Nancy Drew suggestion, I'll suggest that next year if they are still living in our neighborhood. With Nancy being eighteen, and driving a car, I think an older teen might appeal to her.


Why not take her to the library and let her pick out books similar to the Trixie Belden series or other topics that might spark interest? 

 

So nice of you to mentor this young girl!

@AuntG  My granddaughter enjoyed "The one and only Ivan"  I read it and enjoyed it myself.
