March Book of the Month
This Full House
Virginia Euwer Wolff
This Full House concludes the free verse trilogy that began with Make Lemonade. In this final book, LaVaughn, now 17, remains as ambitious as ever. She even gets admitted to a prestigious program for girls entering the field of medical science. LaVaughn remains keenly aware of the state of those who surround her: her pregnant friend Annie, Jolly, the woman she babysits for, and her children. Though a discovery is made that jeopardizes her future, LaVaughn emerges triumphant. A must read for fans of the first two books.
