Stargirl, by Jerry Spinelli

Unique and free-spirited Stargirl Caraway shakes up the quiet life of high school with her unconventional ways. As she navigates the challenges of fitting in and staying true to herself, she teaches others the importance of embracing individuality. 

This group is led by Elizabeth McGoldrick, M.Ed. When she doesn’t have her nose in a book she works as the Literacy Coordinator at Waterside School in Stamford, CT.  She loves introducing children to the world of reading and facilitating the journey for even the most reticent reader. Her favorite color is orange, and she never turns down a homemade chocolate chip cookie.
