[Jessica · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is one of my favorite book to ever be made. Though I'm not really suprized that I'm the only one on this site to say anything about it.
I also own this book, it was one of the first books that I've ever owned. Now I've got over like 100 books but ever once in a while I'll go and find this book and read it again.
There is a story behind me and this book, but I'll save that for another day.

I wanted to like this book. I loved I'll Get There, It Better Be Worth the Trip. This was such a letdown.
