Firegirl

I did not like this book written by Tony Abbott. Tom is attracted to a girl at his school named Courtney. He fantasizes on different ways he can impress her. Jessica is the new girl who is attending their Catholic school, while receiving treatment at an area hospital for severe burns to her face, hands, and other parts of her body. The other students aren’t sure how to react to her, including Tom. Since he lives close to her, their teacher asks him to deliver some assignments to her that she missed. He is reluctant to do so, but this act of kindness leads to a new understanding and friendship. When I was in elementary, I had a crush on a girl named Courtney.
