Winter Carnival!!

Sometimes you dream something that felt so real when you wake up from it. Has that happened to you before? Well that's what happened to a girl in this book, Winter Carnival, by Francine Pascal.This book is about a girl named Elizabeth Wakefield. Her life was going down the drain. Especially when her sister, Jessica, starts to borrow her clothes, doesn't do her chores, and is just plain annoying. Sometimes she wishes that she never had a sister!!Both girls go to a Winter Carnival, and everything goes wrong.Elizabeth thinks that Jessica was flurting with her boyfriend, but it wasn't true.So she gets so mad that she leaves home. She takes the first bus to Sweet Valley. She gets home so tired that she takes a nap. She starts to dream that Jessica finds out that she was mad at her , so she goes looking for her.On the way a car slams right into her and she gets sent to the hospital. Elizabeth finds out about this and goes rushing to the hospital. Sadly it was too late, and Jessica dies. Elizabeth couldn't believe was she had thought, and said to her sister before. She gets extremely sad. But then she wakes up, and is so relieved because it was only a dream. She goes down stairs and starts hugging Jessica, and telling her that she's sorry for everything. Winter Carnival, is such a great book. I love it because I can really relate it to myself. Mostly because of the things that happened in the book.Although it was a really fun and easy book to read, it was also sort of annoying too. Like when Jessica acts so selfish to her sister. If I were Elizabeth I would totally slap her!! But the main reason why I like this book is because it has a message or theme: Be careful what you wish for! I reccomend this book to people that like reality books.

A MUST READ!

I loved this book. It has a spell curled around it to make you keep reading it. On a rainy day, you can stay curled up on a chair and read this book for the entire day. Again and again. I just love the idea of Elizabeth thinking Jessica's stolen her boyfriend again. Jeffrey, in my point of view, is a rather stuck up pig. Jessica's sisterly in that book. A definite best!!

Pretty good

I like the book a lot. The only thing I don't think is that good is Liz completely falling apart. In most of the Super Editions, it's always Liz who gets all the problems!!! Also, Jessica doesn't really seem to care that much about Elizabeth!! Maybe some people might think the book is great but I don't really think this book is a sucess
