Artichoke's Heart


Artichoke's Heart by Suzanne Supplee


When she is almost sixteen years old, Rosemary decides she is sick of being overweight, mocked at school and at Heavenly Hair--her mother's beauty salon--and feeling out of control, and as she slowly loses weight, she realizes that she is able to cope with her mother's cancer, having a boyfriend for the first time, and discovering that other people's lives are not as perfect as they seem from the outside.


My Thoughts - Rosemary is wonderful! She will stay with me for awhile! I liked the way she learned how to handle her problems throughout the story. She taught me some things too!
