review 1: Meet marvelous Maggie Mayfield, future president of the United States. Ambitious, confident, and full of spunk, Maggie navigates the halls of middle school determined to maintain her stellar GPA and title as Science Fair Champion. But Maggie's cool dude dad is battling a debilitating illness and even a science fair champion may not be able to reverse the effects of Multiple Sclerosis. This tender, fast-paced novel offers a realistic portrait of a quirky pre-teen coming to terms with her father's failing health. Maggie's stubborn determination and naivety won a place in my heart.
review 2: Maggie is an incredibly funny, smart, and impulsive character (who also happens to comsume massive quatities of sweets!). Confident that she will be president one day, she fi... moreghts non-stop with her 2 older sisters, and is consumed with trying to "fix" her hippie, fun-loving father, who has MS. This book will be a huge hit with my middle school girls. I haven't read such a strong "voice" in a long time. Just delightful! less
