 Good, but beware February 11, 2007

If you are a scoliosis suffer (like I was) then I give you a few words of caution before reading this book. In this country the recommended treatment for scoliosis is surgery - and the insertion of one or two Harrington rods to straighten the spine. I think that very few consultants these days would recommend bracing the poor kids up for years. The prospect of surgery is scary (I should know) but your life will be pretty much back to normal after about three months. For me, it's been 11 years since I had my two rods fitted and most of the time I forget they're there.
As for this particular book, it's certainly an encouraging tale of a very brave girl overcoming a physical deformity, and I can, on the whole, recommend it.
Great read for teenagers December 28, 2005

I read this at 13 and picked it up again the other day and read it as an adult. The story is very readable and the messages about appearance, vanity, appreciating what we've got and understanding others' misfortunes are great for kids of any age. I found the parts about masturbation unnecessary though - this is inappropriate for many children of the age the rest of the book is aimed at and it seems to have been added for "spice" factor rather than as part of the story.
A Review On Dennie January 15, 2003
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Dennie's mother wants her to be a model but Dennie's not sure whether she does, she is also very keen on a incredibly cute boy. but when she has to wear a brace for four years due to her crocked spine life seams to fall apart.This is a strong story that is really going to get you thinking. For eight to twelve year olds
 Absolutely great and very realistic! April 25, 2002

This is a great book about a young girl who discovers she has scoliosis (curvature of the spine) and the effects it has on her life. It's all about how she reacts to it and learns to deal with it, and with her friends reactions to the scoliosis and in particular the brace she has to wear.As a 'girl' with scoliosis myself, I found this book very realistic and helpful, I first read it at 9 and 12 years later I'm still reading it again and again. It is a great book with brilliant charachters and I would (and have) recommended it to all my friends. Whether you are just looking for a good book, or whether you want to learn about the struggle girls have with scoliosis, it is a great book and well worth a read.
BORROW IT, READ IT, THEN YOU WILL WANT TO BUY IT!

This book didn't occur to me to be a book that I wouldn't be able to put down!
Deenie the main character is fine until she finds out she has a problem with her spine. Her mother doesn't make it better with going on about a model agency. She says that Deenies older sister is the brainy one while Deenie is the model.
Deenie doesn't want to be a model, but her mother forces her. When she finds out Deenie has a spine problem she says it's her own fault.
Will Deenie have the courage to go on? Read and find out!
