That Summer by Sarah Dessen (pgs.1-34)

My impressions on the book thus far are very good. The book is about a girl named Haven, she has so many problems dealing with her parents divorce. With her father, Mac-McPhail whom is getting remarried to his co-worker Lorna Queen also known as the "Weather pet" according to her mother. Lorna is meteorologist and Haven's father who is a sports anchor both for channel 5.
Haven and the rest of her family (mother and older sister Ashley) thought their was something going on between them when they sat together whispering and giggling during the credits.

Haven's other main problem is she is fifteen and is growing each day. As Haven looks at Ashley it makes her realize how tall she is. Ashley is twenty-one, petite 5'4, with a curvy body Haven wishes she had.

How would you resolve these problems if you had them?

The problem Haven is facing about her body image I would probably just tell myself that you have to be comfrontable about your body everyone has things they dont like about themselves but there not as bad as you think they are.
