Young Adult Fiction. Young Adult Literature. HTML:The acclaimed author of Flipped delivers a powerful and healing story thatâ??s perfect for anyone whoâ??s ever thought that something was impossible. Readers will revel in the story of a girl who puts herself back togetherâ??and learns to dream bigger than ever beforeâ??after sheâ??s told sheâ??ll never run again.

Jessica thinks her life is over when she loses a leg in a car accident. She's not comforted by the news that she'll be able to walk with the help of a prosthetic leg. Who cares about walking when you live to run?
As she struggles to cope with crutches and a first cyborg-like prosthetic, Jessica feels oddly both in the spotlight and invisible. People who don't know what to say, act like she's not there. Which she could handle better if she weren't now keenly aware that she'd done the same thing herself to a girl with CP named Rosa. A girl who is going to tutor her through all the math she's missed. A girl who sees right into the heart of her.
With the support of family, friends, a coach, and her track teammates, Jessica may actually be able to run again. But that's not enough for her now. She doesn't just want to cross finish lines herselfâ??she wants to take Rosa with her

Great young adult fiction. Great recommendation for female athletes! ( )

Jessica thinks her life is over when she loses a leg in a car accident. She’s not comforted by the news that she’ll be able to walk with the help of a prosthetic leg. Who cares about walking when you live to run?

As she struggles to cope, Jessica feels that she’s both in the spotlight and invisible. People who don’t know what to say act like she’s not there. Jessica’s embarrassed to realize that she’s done the same to a girl with CP named Rosa. A girl who is going to tutor her through all the math she’s missed. A girl who sees right into the heart of her.

With the support of family, friends, a coach, and her track teammates, Jessica may actually be able to run again. But that’s not enough for her now. She doesn’t just want to cross finish lines herself—she wants to take Rosa with her.

Realistic YA fiction about a high school track star who must face life after a heart-wrenching accident. Her recovery, both mentally and physically, is woven in to this wonderful story of family, friendships and change. ( )

Flipped is one of my all-time favorite books, so when I saw the author's name on "The Running Dream" at the Scholastic Warehouse Sale, I picked it up. It's an easy read and the kind of read that once I started I could not stop.

I also cried a couple of times, just to warn you. Really interesting story of how a high school track star copes with losing a leg. Spooky moment: part of the story cites Oscar Pistorius as inspiration...I was reading this the day after he was arrested for killing his girlfriend.

It made me want to start running again... ( )
