(4) 4-6 In this epistolary novel, eleven-year-old Julie pours her heart out in letters to an elderly pen pal. When diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, Julie worries about her participation in the school Fun Run and the talent show. Though one wonders how she can hand-write and type all those letters when her hands hurt so much, the novel does offer a readable perspective on an unusual topic.
