Publisher's Description:
What is a girl to do when her rival wants to nab the attention of the one boy
she’s liked since he shared his peanut butter sandwich with her in the first
grade? Love, Lexi follows seventh grader Alexis Dawn Cooper (Lexi) as
she navigates middle school and being a middle child. But this is no ordinary
middle-school novel. Love, Lexi is a unique combination of a
fictional story combined with a devotional and journal to allow readers to
watch Lexi learn to seek God first above all else, while writing their own
letters to God. Love, Lexi draws young people into Lexi’s life as
they contemplate their own place in God’s eyes.
My Review:
Sherry Kyle has a gift for writing for tweens and teens. Love, Lexi is a delightful story written in the form of letters to God from a seventh grade girl. She pours her heart out like most girls her age with a sincere and sweet trust. God's response through scripture creates a great dialog and will help the reader understand how God's word can work in their life. I like that there's space for the reader to answer questions and jot down thoughts. I can't wait to share this with my granddaughter. I think it will be a great tool to help teach her that God is there for her, along with the many encouraging scriptures and thoughts. The hot pink lettering and doodles will make any girl smile as they read Lexi's story. As a grandmother, I'm happy the book emphasizes friendship and relationship in a positive way. I can't say enough good stuff about Love, Lexi. I hope Sherry Kyle write more Lexi books.
