Q

I think the moral/ message is that Never Jugde a book by its cover. Stargirl is different from everyone but she is also the most true to self person that Leo or anyone has ever known.

Q

Spinelli adds many references to the natural surroundings in Arizona in telling the story. He mentions Señor Saguaro, the name given to a large saguaro cactus by Archie Brubaker. The author also mentions the Maricopa Mountains, the Sonoran Desert, elf owls amd mud frogs. If you have an opportunity, do an online search for photos of “saguaro,” “elf owl,” “mud frog,” “Maricopa Mountains” and/or “Sonoran Desert.”

Q

“Always wait and see what happens next,” could be another theme for Star Girl. This is because Star Girl never waited to see what would happen after the dance the night that Hilari slapped her. She would have never known what would have happened at school the next day. In my opinion Star girl should have finished they year, and then if she still wasn’t happy with everything, she should have left then.

Q

Person vs. Person: One of the conflicts in the novel is person vs. person, this is because Star Girl has to face many people that hate her in Mica High. The most important person that has to face Star Girl is probably Hilari Kimble. I think that it is Hilari because she is continuously trying to get rid of Star Girl, or making her want to leave Mica.
