PHYLISS IS A ROMANCE NOVEL....the story goes...Phyllis is a sad and lonely girl who has just moved to a new town and doesn't have any friends when she starts writing in a diary that she calls Louise. Louise chronicles Phyllis's life as she starts to make friends and learn about life. A good read.Here is a excerpt from the book....a little sad as I spoke the truth out to her, for I am fifteen years old, and fifteen are a good many years to live lonely. I haven't any friends in all the world. We have traveled everywhere trying to get mother well, but I've had no chance to make friends. This is the first time a girl ever talked to me in my life, and I never did talk to a boy--and I never want to. Oh, Phyllis, how dreadful! said Roxanne; and she gave me such a hug around the neck that it hurt awfully, only I liked it. It did feel funny to have somebody sniffing tears of sympathy against your cheek, and I didn't know exactly what to do. Petting has to be learned by degrees and you can't come to it suddenly. But I was happy.And I'm happier to-night than I ever was in my life, only still scared quite a little, too. I wonder how the boys and girls are going to like Roxanne's being friends with me. How can they hate me if I haven't ever done anything to them? It makes me nervous to think about it, and that combined with the secret.Looking for another good book?
