Ad lit.org: Reading Discussion Guide: Love, Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli

Curated by ACT

Stargirl Caraway explores her new neighborhood with an eye for the unusual. She notices the agoraphobic neighbor, the seemingly homeless young boy, and others who do not fit in easily. Stargirl, never one with an inclination to conform, empathizes with the outcasts, making many of them her new friends. In the "longest letter ever" to her old boyfriend, Leo, Stargirl explores the magic in her new home and her decision to mark time in her own unique way.
