Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Julie's finally settling in at Jack London Elementary School. She loves being part of the basketball team (in fact, she's the only girl on it!) and she likes her fourth grade teacher. If only she didn't have this "Story of My Life" project looming overhead! After her father surprises her with a tape recorder, Julie conducts mini-interviews with her father and her mother, records silly songs and sound effects with her best friend Ivy, and eavesdrops on her older sister Tracy. Julie has a little accident while plant-sitting Tracy's science project, and an even bigger accident on the basketball court. Her melancholy passes when she confesses the truth and realizes that she rather likes the story of her life.
Julie Tells Her Story is the second book about Julie Albright. The character reminds me a bit of Dawn from The Baby-Sisters Club by Ann M. Martin, with her California cool and the way she is illustrated by artist Robert Hunt.
Written by Megan McDonald, the Julie books are part of the American Girls line of books, which offer realistic glimpses into America's past through the eyes of young girls and furthermore encourage the girls of today to reach for the stars.
