This is a sequel to A Girl Named Zippy and I liked it every bit as much as I enjoyed Zippy. The same character, and the whole book is written with her voice. The book is a memoir to end all memoirs, fun and interesting at every turn. It is charming. It feels very honest and real, kind of cool to feel like you're inside of the head of a young girl. I can't imagine that the author really remembered all this stuff in such great detail. I recommend this book.
