 I loved how Celeste turns into a modern day hero, even though she faces many challenges along the way. Nowadays, being a teen mom is portrayed in a negative light because of the reputation that teen moms receive due to hyped up TV shows (dealing with teen moms) and not actual real interaction with moms to see what motherhood is all about. It was nice to see the author not only shows Celeste as a real person, with real issues and the struggles motherhood can bring, but also focuses on Celeste's desire to better herself for her kids. She didn't give up her dreams merely because she had kids at a young age. Even though she had two kids early, she pushed herself and fulfilled her dreams by getting an education. This book is very motivating and goes to show that one should never give up on their dreams.
Number of Pages: 128 Rating: 5 Fiction/Non-Fiction: Fiction Who would you recommend this book to? Teens/Adults What did you like most about this book? I liked reading a book with a character who overcomes things (such as teen pregnancy) with not only a great support system, but self-determination as well. What did you like least about this book? Nothing. I felt Christine Pauls did an outstanding job developing the characters and story line. It was well thought out and an enjoyable read. Any suggestions for how this book could have been better? None. Reviewed by: Candice Martin
