Summary
Thirteen-year-old Alice is frustrated. She really wants her favorite former teacher, Miss Summers, to marry her widowed father, but unfortunately, Miss Summers is also dating the school's vice-principal, Mr. Sorringer. Alice can't understand how Miss Summers can have feelings for two men at once-but then she starts to have feelings for a boy other than Patrick-her boyfriend of the past two years. Will Alice's feelings for Sam end her relationship with Patrick? Meanwhile, Alice's best friends, Pamela and Elizabeth, are dealing their own problems-Pamela is still coping with her parents' divorce, and Elizabeth faces her first pelvic examination.

Oh, the Places You'll Go!
by Dr. Seuss
Illus. in full color. "Don't be fooled by the title of this seriocomic ode to success; it's not 'Climb Every Mountain,' kid version. All journeys face perils, whether from indecision, from loneliness, or worst of all, from too much waiting. Seuss' familiar pajama-clad hero is up to the challenge, and his odyssey is captured vividly in busy two-page spreads evoking both the good times (grinning purple elephants, floating golden castles) and the bad (deep blue wells of confusion). Seuss' message is simple but never sappy: life may be a 'Great Balancing Act,' but through it all 'There's fun to be done.'"--(starred) Booklist.
