Fine, Anne._The tulip touch_,1997 This is a very forceful book which starts out pretty tame. It is the story of a girl who moves to an area and meets a neighbor girl and they become best friends. She soon realizes that the neighbor is a very troubled girl but she puts up with the nonsense for the friendship. Eventually she breaks off contact with the neighbor because the problems begin to escalate. The neighbor girl decides to get back at the girl and sets fire to her home and even delays and distracts the firemen so the building burns down. This 149 page book is a very troubling book, well written, but not for everyone. I am concerned that the cover will attract girls looking for a nice book about friendship and this is SO much more. *** Frederick Muller fmuller@planet.net Halsted Middle School Library (973) 383-7440 ext.228 59 Halsted Street FAX (973) 383-7432 Newton, NJ 07860 ----- My book reviews are compiled at http://www.halsted.org/br.htm My personal site is at http://www.planet.net/pfmuller =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-= All postings to LM_NET are protected under copyright law.
