Messages from the Book:
-We should speak our minds.
-We shouldn't put ourselves down, even if we aren't super good at something, or smart, or beautiful.
-Be loyal to your friends. Try not to lie to them even if they made a mistake or did soemthing totally embarassing.
-Always try for something new-how we you know what we can or can't do if we never try?
-How can you choose your dream if you can't keep up?
-You shouldn't take from people, but give back all the good things we're losing.

My Uneducated Note:
I read this book because my younger second cousin from Toronto told it's one of her favorite series and kept asking me to read the book. Haha. So I did. Even if it's a young teen's series book, it sends some good messages.
-Yiou shouldn't take from people or from the planet.
