5–8 GR: S • AR: 4.2
Leo feels fascinated and intimidated by Stargirl,
the new girl at school. She is a special girl,
immune to the criticism of the rest of the kids;
she also draws a lot of attention to herself,
something that he would never do. However,
ever since Stargirl arrived, Leo cannot stop
thinking about her. She touches the lives of
many, and her story becomes a lesson of how
those who are considered different almost
always become immortal.
