"The
Purple Hat Gang"is not only a look back into
the time America called 'Camelot'; it's a look back into a
time in all of our lives when we were forming the person we
wanted to be. The lives of five girls come to life on these
pages. It is a coming of age story of
friendship and solidarity, a story of hope.The high
point of the story is the birthday sleepover party. Here the
girls really learn about each other and their hidden secrets.
Teen girls will be able to relate to the characters and situations,
such as boyfriends, graduation, and family relationships.
Did some of us become that person we wanted to be? Of course we did. Did some of us fall short? Of course we did. But this book gives you hope and faith that you are able as long as you think you are able - that all of us have a 'Purple Hat' somewhere, and that we can put it on and become the master of our fate and the captain of our soul no matter who we are, or where we have been.
