Myracle, Lauren Peace, Love, and Baby Ducks 292 pgs. Dutton Juvenile ~Language PG-13, Sexual Content~PG-13 Violence~G
Lauren has always been there for Carly. As the older sister, she is the protector and built in best friend. Coming back from her summer long volunteer project as a tree hugger, cleaning up the forest and trail building, Lauren discovers that Carly is now the bigger(in the chest) and the more beautiful(at least Lauren thinks so) of the two. As they start school, these two facts begin to wear on Lauren. To make matters more complicated as only a boy can do, Lauren develops a crush on the new kid in school. With all the new added attention her younger sister is getting and the fact that she can’t seem to get HIS attention, Lauren’s world is not turning out how she wants it to and she begins to resent the sister she loves most.
In her new book, Myracle dives into the tricky world of sisters. The title will catch their attention and the storyline will too.
This novel includes a lot of references to girl parts, ie bosoms, and other sexually related topics. While there is no actual sex, this reader was taken aback by the frankness of the writing concerning body parts. This may not be for all readers. Swears referring to deity are present as well.
