Doreen Green
just moved to New Jersey and is starting the ninth grade. Doreen has a squirrel tail and other squirrel
attributes, but her parents tell Doreen to keep them hidden. When crimes are committed in Doreen’s new
neighborhood she can’t help but get involved.
Her upbeat and positive personality takes on the middle school social
life, where she finds a new friend named Ana Sofia. Doreen also finds friends among the squirrels
in her neighborhood and they bound over fighting against a super villain.
Doreen has a likable personality because she
is kind and has great self-confidence.
She has a lot of energy and likes to use it for good. I love the Marvel superheroes, but I have a
hard time buying into the idea of a squirrel girl as the story line got to be a
bit ridiculous at times. That said, this
book is clean and I liked the funny young superhero.
