Jerry Spinelli's "Stargirl": A Discussion Guide

The purpose of this book is educational. I enjoy reading Jerry Spinelli’s "Stargirl," and I believe that it is an excellent book for young adults (and for middle-aged adults such as myself) to read.

This book contains many questions about Jerry Spinelli’s "Stargirl" and their answers. I hope that teachers of young adults will find it useful as a guide for discussions. It can also be used for short writing assignments. Students can answer selected questions from this little guide orally or in one or more paragraphs.

I hope to encourage teachers to teach Jerry Spinelli’s "Stargirl," and I hope to lessen the time needed for teachers to prepare to teach this book.
