Make Lemonade Make Lemonade Book 1 Virginia Euwer Wolff Books

14-year-old LaVaughn needs money to start saving for college. And 17-year-old Jolly has two kids who need babysitting. As LaVaughn begins to watch over Jeremy and Jilly, Jolly’s two children, she finds that she cares for the children and their well-being as well as Jolly’s own well-being. LaVaughn discovers what it is like to be selfless as well as smart as she helps Jolly to turn her life around, and in the end, find herself.

Wolff helps to solidify the fact that your life does not have to perfect in order to life. She uses the motif of lemons and lemonade throughout the entire story to show that 1) while somebody may have handed you a lemon without you realizing it at the beginning, you can still turn it into lemonade, and 2) even if you have to wait months and months for the lemon seeds to bloom, they will bloom. Jolly has been handed some of the hardest lemons imaginable, but she is still able to find the humor in her life. LaVaughn is able to see this in Jolly and benefit from this.

Wolff’s writing is great. It is a pretty easy read, and she splits up her writing well that helps the reader to not get overwhelmed. She spaces out her thoughts well and is very good at helping the reader get inside the head of the protagonist.
I love Wolff’s writing and would recommend this read to anybody who wants an interesting storyline and a good read.

Make Lemonade -- not always easy to confront what youth experience. Very well-written. I look forward to Book 2 from this author.
LOVE this book!!! I strongly recommend it!!!
To really enjoyed the book and recommend it to all readers.
This book is a wonderful introduction to issues in real life. I read the book with my grand daughter and it made it easy to talk about issues I would otherwise wait to even breach with her.
Loved this book so much!
Bought Make Lemonade for my granddaughter's summer reading, and thought I'd sneak a peek myself. Very nice! Easy reading - and interesting plot! I know nothing about the author, but was searching for recommended reading online. I'm anxious to see what my granddaughter has to say about it after she reads it this summer.
