PCE stundent review

How I Survived Being a Girl is a wonderful book for girls and some boys. It's a hilarious book to read!!!! It talks about a girl named Carolyn and how she is the only girl in the family beside her mom. So she has to play boy games, but she doesn't really mind it. She is always giving you tips throughout the story for you to stay away from. For example: Keep your hair to short for ribbons; get a great dog; avoid girls with Mary Janes, and spy on your neighbor. She talks about peer pressure, and feels enough peer pressure to steal a book. But she brings the book back. I would definitely recommend it for all ages. I like the book so much I finished it in 2 days. I like this book also because it is so funny and has real life stories. So if you like funny and real life stories this book is definitely for you. I give this book 2 thumbs up!!!!

This book is about a girl named Carolyn. She tells about her life at home and at her school. Whether it's good or bad, she knows how to keep her cool! I think this book is a great book because the characters and events that are in the story are very similar to people and events in real life. This book is a perfect book to read at home while in bed. I love this book. I gave it 4 stars because the only thing I didn't like about this book is that it seem like it had no ending. But despite that it's a fantastic story to read!!!

Carolyn's tips for survival:

Keep your hair too short for ribbons.
Get a great dog.
Avoid girls who wear Mary Janes.
Spy on the neighbors.
Play in the mud.

Carolyn likes to break the rules. To her great surprise, it turns out that's what being a girl is all about.
