In my opinion this book was the best ever. It is about a young lady who too deals with peer pressure but does not surrender to it. because he was a genuine person not relying on others validate him. I really enjoyed the book also because it was written about a first grader who goes through some of the same things as a teenager.
Some good and some bad. I think that Mr. I really enjoyed reading Stargirl. This book teaches you to think for yourself, be yourself and make wise choices. I think that this book definitely should be taught and read in schools because young people deal with a lot of peer pressure. I could relate to Donald Zinkoff.
Spenilli writes very well about books dealing with peer pressure because maybe he dealt with it himself. I think it should be read by young people of all ages. As a teenager we sometimes wait on our friends to make us feel accepted but he didn't. I compare this book written by Jerry Spenilli to another that I've read, Stargirl.

Kids grab Zinkoff's hat and a fifth grader comes out and grabs the hat out of the kid's hands and supposedly it was the fifth grader's hat and he dropped it. People pick on each other. Zinkoff goes to the zoo and buys a giraffe hat.
Zinkoff notices Andrew's face and didn't Andrew recognize Zinkoff. I think people should read this book because it's good. Andrew changed his name to Drew.
From an Elementary Student in my class:There is this boy called Zinkoff and he goes to school. He hasn't seen Andrew Orwell in a long time. It has long words and tough words.
When Zinkoff went to school kids picked on him. As Zinkoff grows up he gets into middle school and he makes new friends and he has a sister named Polly.
Makes you wonder how come his family never got him any special help because he so needed it. This has got to be the worst book I have ever read. I want my money back and if I could recapture the hours of my life that I wasted on reading it, I would want that back too. It is such an awful book with such an unpleasant abrupt ending that I will never take the chance on reading another Spinelli book ever. I say this because throughout the entire depressing book, you are waiting for it to turn around and for this kid to become a non loser, to make a friend, to have something good happen and it just DOESN'T happen. It has an unsatisfying ending without any resolution to his sad sap life.
great book i recommend it to people who like storys about peoples live. a friend preffered this book to me. 5 stars. jerry spinelli is my favorite author. in this book he uses his abilities like its a piece of cake.
