I read this book in one day, I LOVED it! It made me think more about the importance of family. I hope you read it :)
I loved how all of the poems related to her life.
It was a great book! It was a little bit sad, but other than that I enjoyed it. It was written as poetry.
Looking For Me is just full of thought, misery, and happiness, all in poem form. It's an amazing book, about a girl named Edith's family challenges. Unfortunately, Edith has a very hard life with her huge family, and most of the time she is sad, and has the worst of luck. Eventually, something extremely depressing happens, and after that, I found it challenging to read. Plus, the ending just seems too short! Overall, it's a great book, but don't read it when you're happy, 'cause it will put you down. Still, the way Edith handles her tragedy could pump a teary person up. Overall, it's a great book. (SUPER easy to get in to!) But, like Edith, you could have some constant damp eyes, too. I would recommend ages ten and up to read, but if you're interested it's still a good read.
This book, Looking for Me, was a book about a girl named Edith who has a remarkably huge family. This book is written in poetry form. Edith thinks that she is just plain old number four in her big family. She's not that old, so she doesn't exactly get privileges, and she's not that young, so no one holds her hand and she can't get away with stuff. But slowly from the beginning to the end, Edith realizes that she is way more then plain old number four. This book was okay. It wasn't the best because it was sad. The book made me feel pretty grateful for what I have, though. My favorite part was when Edith plays in the rain with her little brother, Melvin. I think you would like this book if you think you don't play a important part in your family. I think the lesson in this book is, "You are always Something". I hope you like this book if you read it.
