Blue Lipstick: Concrete Poems

Grandits, John. Blue Lipstick: Concrete Poems. New York: Clarion Books, 2007. ISBN: 978-0-618-56860-4.

Blue Lipstick is a hilarious book with poems that most girls can relate to. Jessie, the girl telling the story, has strong opinions that she isn't afraid to share. She has a sarcastic and refreshing take on high school as opposed to the normal drab things about it that you hear. I absolutely loved this book. I would recommed this to girls especially with siblings, or any girl. Probably between 4th or 5th grade and up. It really makes you laugh no matter how rough of a day you are having. I hope that you will take time to read this book and hopefully enjoy it as much as I did.
