Worse still, Zoe invites Sara Jane Cushman to go to Washington in Cricket's place! Now Cricket's friendship with Zoe seems as injured as her ankle.

I would like to tell you about a book that I enjoyed. The title of this book is Spring Break by Johanna Hurwitz. One of the characters name is Cricket and she has a best friend named Zoe. Cricket was supposed to go on a trip to Washington D.C. with Zoe's family. Cricket couldn't go on the trip and some drama was added into there friendship.

This book would be great for older elementary students or maybe even the third grade age. It would be a great book to use when your students come back from a break. I enjoyed reading this book and I would recommend it to anyone.
