Every Soul a Star
Every Soul a Star
by Wendy Mass.
Published: 2008.
ISBN: 978-0316002561
All three of them saw the same solar eclipse, but all three have a different story to tell. Ally, Bree, and Jack are all at Moon Shadow Campground when the witness the eclipse, but all three are very different. Bree is an aspiring model who only thinks about her reputation, Jack an artist type who loves to read, and Ally’s family owns the campgrounds, where she lives a sheltered life. The three characters cross paths through the story, but each chapter is a narrative of one of them. All three began to grow and learn more about themselves. This is a wonderful coming of age story, where the characters are well liked and are relatable to many different readers. This is a California Young Reader Medal Nominee for 2011-2012.
