Dell, 1974
125 str.
meki povez
stanje: dobro, potpis na predlistu.
Describes a twelve-year-old`s crush on her neighbour`s boyfriend and her impressions when she meets him again five years later.
Paula kept her hand over the phone and hesitated. Then she picked up the receiver and dialed again. OR 3-9056
`H-hello?`
`Hello` Paula said, in a little voice. `I`m sorry to bother you again but I wonder`
`Oh, yes?`
`See, I was really in love with you that summer. I mean that was the first time I ever really-`
`Just a minute.` She could hear Tom put his hand over the phone, then she heard nothing.
`Go on,` he said in a warmer voice.
That summer had been five years ago and Tom barely remembered the girl with the water colors-he had spoken to her only a few times. But Paula remembered Tom. He was always there, some-where in her mind. Now, five years later, she was in New York, and she was actually talking to him on the phone!
`Funny in a bittersweet way.`
-Bulletin of the Center for Children`s Books (recommended)
`The illusions and vulnerability of ado-lescence are depicted with unflinching accuracy.`
-The Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
`Without any moralizing overtones, readers are given a most rewarding story`
-Publishers Weekly
`Playing with paper dolls one moment and imagining vague sexual encounters the next a memorable portrait.`
-Book World
