What we start out as just a interview will turn it to something that neither thought.

This book was a fun read. Delilah is very likable along with Her best friend Jenner, a surfer and loves sweets. The funniest relationship is the one with Delilah and her step-dad. He's constantly consulting a book in order to get parenting advice.

What I really like about the writing that Jo Whittermore, did for this books is that I found myself thinking that I was watching a Disney movie the Whole time I was reading. Which is not a bad thing, because I love Disney movies. I love books that I can just sit and really enjoy it.

This is a great book for you to read to your little ones, and for middle grade children to read. But also for adults that love a great cute book to read.
