Title: What a friend!
Review: For Leslie, a junior-high girl in a new town, every problem seems too big. How will she make new friends? How will she find her way around school? How can she do something about her nose being too flat? She tries writing her thoughts to God in letters, and ends up having her best friend of all. Through the year, she takes part in a "life group" at her church, anxious at first about having to share her feelings, but learning to trust and finding good friends among the rest of the group. She knows she worries about small things and relates that her life group leader says she thought it was terrible when she met a man with no shoes until she met a man with no feet. Well, Leslie has worried about a lot of things ... and then her mother and father talk about getting a divorce. Leslie has developed skills to help her cope. It's a thought-provoking book that will resonate with many teens.
