Rating: - I am/was Kessa because of this book...
I don't know if reading this book as a teen (in the early 90's) helped me understand myself and the fact that I had/have an eating disorder, or if it possibly reinforced my ED. I still struggle today, as a 30's-something mother and wife, with food in every aspect. Sometimes I think back to reading this book and wonder if I should love it (for letting me know I wasn't alone) or hate it (for letting me know I wasn't alone).
I give this book a 5-star rating because I feel that the issue ... Read More
Rating: - Its a good book
Its good. I dont really care for the way it was written in a little girl's point of view. That, I can't relate to. I think it was a nice story though...
Rating: - The Best Little Girl in the World
Both my teenage daughter and I read this book. It gave us both a great insight into how one small comment can change a persons perception of their self. The book was a eye-opener for me because I was not aware of the impact comments about a persons body shape can have on them.

Rating: - Fine..........If you're shallow
I'm a nineth grader in a small town and am being told to read this book for my English class. My teacher spent valuable budget money on a class set of this junk and I'm severely appalled.
First thing first, this book is hardly appropriate for a guy to read and is not school suitable, either. It also contains a good deal of profain language.
It appears to have the capability of reverse physcology and is definately dangerous. If you're shallow enough to just take it with ... Read More
Rating: - Entertaining but Dangerous
While this book is entertaining and even "informative", it is dangerous. Over the years I know that much blame has been put on this book and even on the author, however, I think that it is the "informative" nature that makes it so dangerous. I remember reading it for the first time (at age 11) and while I don't remember a clear "wow, anorexia is cool" thought going through my mind - it definitely opened a door. Being a (naturally thin) gymnast and model, I think the book gave me ideas I wouldn't have ... Read More
