Julia - Farmersville, CA

Off and Running is about Miata, a girl who wants to be president of her school. She is running against Rudy. She wants to win to make the school a better place but Rudy only wants to do things that are not going to help the school. This is really a great book. I think you should read this book to find out who will win. It is funny.

This is a good story. I hope you like it when you read it. I did. I would read it again and again. I am not going to give away the ending for you. I will only tell you that it is about a girl who wants to be class president. Vote for Miata!
