Over the summer I read an amazing book called Deenie. It was very well written. The author is named Judy Blume. The main character is named Deenie. Deenie is a normal girl. She is thirteen years old. But one day she gets diagnosed with Scoliosis. That means that she has to wear a brace on her back. Deenie hates the brace. It makes her look weird. Her mom also doesn’t like it. Her mom wanted Deenie to be a model. Deenie could not be a model with the brace. Deenie didn’t want to be a model so she was glad the she did not have be one. But she was still angry that she had to wear a brace. She wondered how her friends and classmates would think of her.

The first time Dennie saw the brace that she was going to have to wear, she wanted to scream.Forget it! I am never going to wear that thing. Deenie has to wear the brace to school. There are always times when she wants to take the brace of. One time, she wanted to take the brace of more than anything because she did not want people to make fun of her. Her father said no. She really wanted to. Her father was not there at that moment so she thought that she should take it off. But she made the right choice and kept it on. Deenie’s mom got upset when she finds out that Deenie has Scoliosis. She wanted Deenie to be a model.

I really liked this book. It talks about challenges that Deenie had to overcome. Like being afraid of someone bullying you. Or not being able to do something that you wanted to do. I think a lot of people could enjoy this book. It is very well written. I rate this book ⭑⭑⭑⭑
