Title: Meet Julie
Author: Megan McDonald
Summary: Julie Albright is so upset when she finds out that her parents are getting a divorce, and she is going to move into a cramped apartment over her mother's shop Gladrags. Moving means spending only weekends with Dad, and hardly getting to see her best friend forever, Ivy Ling. But, things begin to get better when Julie finds out her school has a basketball team - something that her old school didn't. She also meets a new friend T.J. that loves to shoot hoops. But things go downhill again when Julie finds out that the basketball team has a no girls allowed rule. Julie tries to do everything to get Coach Manly to change his mind. Will Julie be able to fight for her rights? Will she ever even feel at home?
Rating: 5 stars
Complaints: None.
Comments: What a good book. I love the 1974 setting and I have the Julie doll, so it is really fun to read! This book will certainly appeal to any girl who loves American Girl or/and historic fiction.
