Starr and the High Seas Wedding Drama by: Lynelle Woolley

This past April I had the pleasure to meet author Lynelle Woolley at the LA Times Book Festival.  She has written her third book in the Flower Girl World series.

In the book Starr and the High Seas Wedding Drama Starr and her family are going on a Mexican cruise to meet the fiancé of her grandmother (Abuela).  Starr is excited about going on a cruise but isn't sure about her Abuela getting married.  Starr meets Ivy the granddaughter of Abuela's fiancé, Grandpa Walt.  Starr and Ivy are complete opposites but become friends quickly.  They are not sure about the upcoming marriage so they decide to find out if Grandpa Walt and Abuela are truly in love.  As their plan begins to work, Ivy and Starr find out how much they like each other and the idea of being related.  When their plan works too well, Abuela and Grandpa Walt are fighting, Starr and Ivy realize they need a new plan.  Can the girls now get them back together and be flower girls for the wedding?

This was a great story and I think many young girls dream of weddings.  This would be a great series for all those beginning chapter readers Girls will be able to see themselves in the stories.  I love that new friends are made as well as the wedding.  We can all use new friends and seeing how friends can help us in these books is great for all young readers.

Happy Daily Reading
