Olive's Ocean


This was a realistic fiction book about a girl named Martha coping with a death of a classmate that she knew nothing about. Olive just moved to town and is killed in an accident. In her Journal that her mother finds is a sentence about how she would like to be friends with Martha. Olive's mother gives Martha this journal page. Now Martha has a family vacation to visit her grandmother, and thoughts about why Olive would have wanted to be friends with her. This was not an adventour story, or a mystery. It was just a story about a girl's summer. That's why I liked it. I could find parts of myself in that summer. What about you?
