Dear Sweet Pea

Stars 5/5
Dear Sweet Pea by Julie Murphy

This is such a cute story that follows a young girl named, Patricia, but everyone calls her Sweet Pea. Sweet Pea has a lot to deal with. Her Father just came out as gay and her parents are getting a divorce. Her best friend dumped her for other, more cool girls, and she doesn't know why. Sweet Pea has always been overweight so that is something she must deal with every day and now her neighbor, the newspaper advice columnist, has to go out of town and asked Sweet Pea to forward her mail to her and water her plants. This is when Sweet Pea takes it upon herself to read some of the letters and one she recognizes as her old best friend's writing. I don't want to go into the story more as to not spoil it but I highly recommend it.
