A Little Help From My Friends and A Giveaway


Product Description
Zoe is used to being overlooked. As the youngest and shyest Miracle Girl, she was happy to fade into the background last year. But when she sheds her baby fat and shoots up four inches the summer before her junior year, everything changes. Now she's turning heads at school, and this new attention is beginning to strain her relationship with her sweet, serious boyfriend, Marcus. Pressure builds when Zoe's assigned partner for history class is Dean Marchese--a handsome New York transplant who isn't afraid to show her how he feels.
Just when she needs her three best friends the most, the Miracle Girls are suffering from boy troubles of their own. Even Zoe's rock-solid home life begins to shake underneath her when her parents' relationship frays in the face of serious financial burdens. As this uncertain year of growing pains comes to a frenetic head, the quietest Miracle Girl must find her voice at long last and take control of her own destiny . . . with more than a little help from her friends.

This is the third book in a series of Miracle Girls which centers around Ana, Riley, Christine, and Zoe.  A Little Help From My Friends centers around Zoe's story. What is great about this book is how well the writers write in teen voices. If you have ever been privy to a teenagers conversation you know what I am talking about. This book was witty, fun and very, very sweet. I found it to be a great read and will recommend it to all my girlfriends with Tweens. I love books that focus on friendship, school and have a good overall message.  This is a series of books that all teenage girls can relate to.
