En savoir plus
Stargirl heißt die neue Schülerin an der Mica Highschool in Arizona. Natürlich ist das nicht ihr richtiger Name, aber er passt zu ihr wie kein zweiter. Vom ersten Tag an ist sie Schulgespräch, ein exotisches Wesen zwischen ihren angepassten Mitschülern - und wie ein leuchtender Stern in Leos eintönigem Alltag. Doch nach einer ersten Phase des Staunens und der Bewunderung wenden sich ihre Mitschüler von ihr ab. Leo, in Stargirl verliebt, bleibt ihr einziger Freund, leidet aber zunehmend unter der Ausgrenzung durch die anderen. Und so begeht ein einen kapitalen Fehler.

Résumé
ONE OF TIME MAGAZINE’S 100 BEST YA BOOKS OF ALL TIME • NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A PARADE BEST KIDS BOOK OF ALL TIME
A modern-day classic from Newbery Medalist Jerry Spinelli, this beloved celebration of individuality is now an original movie on Disney+!
Stargirl. From the day she arrives at quiet Mica High in a burst of color and sound, the hallways hum with the murmur of “Stargirl, Stargirl.” She captures Leo Borlock’ s heart with just one smile. She sparks a school-spirit revolution with just one cheer. The students of Mica High are enchanted. At first.
Then they turn on her. Stargirl is suddenly shunned for everything that makes her different, and Leo, panicked and desperate with love, urges her to become the very thing that can destroy her: normal. In this celebration of nonconformity, Newbery Medalist Jerry Spinelli weaves a tense, emotional tale about the perils of popularity and the thrill and inspiration of first love.
Don’t miss the sequel, Love, Stargirl, as well as The Warden’s Daughter, a novel about another girl who can't help but stand out.
