"The Luckiest Girl," chapters 9-10. It's Beverly Cleary's 1958 teen novel about first love in a strange land, and things ain't looking good. Shelly and Philip have a serious chat and it does not go as she'd hoped. There's a lot of homesickness and a raucous, disappointing basketball game with paper pom poms and an electric(!) megaphone. Jody and Alison create outsider art, play 1958 TV commercials, and perform dramatic readings. It's a Judy Blume book club. Join us every week!
