Description
From the moment Jessica arrives, life is never quite the same for Tom and his seventh grade classmates. They learn that Jessica has been in a fire and will be attending St. Catherine's while getting medical treatment.
Despite her startling appearance and the fear she evokes in him and most of the class, Tom slowly develops a tentative friendship with Jessica that changes his life.
FIREGIRL is a powerful book that will show readers that even the smallest of gestures can have a profound impact on someone's life.
* It's a beautiful story, a sad story, brilliantly written, a story you'll never forget
