Flipped

<b>Book Description</b>When seven-year-old Juianna meets her new neighbor Bryce, she flips over him. When Bryce first meets Julianna, he flees from her. Over the next few years, Julianna's life if full. She raises chickens and sells eggs, grows closer to her father and uncle, landscapes her yard, and becomes a friend to Bryce's grandfather. Bryce spends his time avoiding Julianna and generally feeling sorry for himself. But in eighth grade, when Bryce takes a second look at Julianna, it's his turn to flip. Suddenly he realizes that there is more to Julianna than he ver saw before. But did he take too long to notice?

<b>My Comments:</b> I actually listened to this one. It was a great one to listen to. Chapters alternated between the perspectives of Julie and Bryce. It was a great "she said, he said" kind of book. I am amazed everytime I hear of situations where two people expereience the same thing, but have very different impressions of what "really" happened. I also liked that it started when they were in 2nd grade and continued through 8th grade.
