They soon figure out that life isn't as splendid as its crack up to be.Penelope falls in love with the Bavarian prince, but will he still want her when his trip is over?

Summary: Laura Li is perfect in every way.She works in the school library, helps others, is always smiling, and it totally gorgeous. But in reality Laura Li isn't perfect. She smokes and sneaks out of the house and goes to wild parties and clubs to escape the pressures of her mother and absent father. Through poems teachers and other kids revel who they are and what they think about Laura Li.

Personal Review: Laura Li is a split image, she can be so perfect one minute and then not so perfect the next. Its sad to watch someone stuggle with an overload of pressures from parents, school, and others. By reading these poems you can learn and feel what she is going through.

Cautionary Notes:Smoking, racial comments, and suicide.
