Yours Truly, Skye O'Shea

This is a positive book for young women! I love it!

My daugther loved it!

Shortly after Skye enters middle school, she feels overwhelmed by her homework, her first crush, and her afterschool sports. Skye worries that she'll never be as skilled or as smart as her older sisters, twins Shannon and Shelby. At home, they always make Skye feel as though it's two against one. On the ice, all three girls excel at hockey. Even after Skye makes the big team, she thinks she has push herself even more in order to prove her worth.Yours Truly, Skye O'Shea is just the beginning. Make sure that you read Skye's the Limit next and find out what happens when Skye goes to an outdoor summer camp. After you read these books, I bet that you, like me, will be wishing there were more Skye stories!

My 10 yr old daughter is reading this book currently and is almost done. She can not put it down. I purchased this book as a birthday party gift for her & her 3 friends (at the American Girl Store book signing on June 26th). Her friend said (while reading the book in the car on the way home) "You guys, this is the best book ever - you need to read it!!"Great gift idea for any girl.

I thuroughly enjoyed Megan Shull's first book, Yours Truly Skye O'Shea. As an 11-year-old, Skye is very much like I was then: an Ithacan, hockey-playing, boy-anxious, pre-teen. The book is fast-paced and the plot never stops moving. This turned out to be a problem for me because I forfeited my homework to keep reading "just another page". You learn to love Skye O'Shea and the ups and downs of her life take you for a ride; you're there cheering when she shoots the winning goal and your heart breaks when hers does. This book gives you an undeniably happy feeling that you should cherish...until you pounce on the second one!
