I read the book All American Girl. All American Girl was about a girl named Samantha Madison, who lives in Washington, D.C. with her parents and two sisters. Her older sister Lucy is into cloths, make-up, hair, cheerleading, and boys. As a matter of fact, Sam has a crush on Lucy's  boyfriend Jack. She also has a younger sister Rebecca, who is a brainiac. Sam is into art and drawing. She even describes her life in terms of a song, "I'm Only Happy When it Rains," because that is the time when her parents let her stay inside and draw. She always wears black clothes and heavy boots.

Samantha is a good artist. She draws pictures of her friends with celebrities. And sells them!  Unfortunately, this does not go over well with her parents. Neither does the fact that she is doing poorly in her German class. Her teacher thinks she is having trouble concentrating because she doesn't have a place for her creativity, so her parents enroll her in a special after-school art class. It just so happens that the instructor/owner of the art school has a bird, which has a thing for Sam's bright red hair and always makes dive bomb attacks at Sam's head. Sam ends up having to wear a helmet every time she goes to art class in order to save her head!

I could relate to Samantha in a lot of ways. If my sister had a cute boyfriend i would most likely be in love with him too.  I would also be annoyed if my little sister was a certified genius and way smarter than me! I have never actually saved the president of the united states from an attempted assassination, infect I have never even ment the president of the united states.

I really enjoyed the book. My favorite part when Samantha saved the president from attempted assassination. And then the presidents son fell in love with Samantha.  .I really enjoyed a ll the obstacles in the book. I do not really have a least part of the book.

I would certainly recommend this book to any one who is looking for an enjoyable book. I think this book. I think this book would be good for any ages especially for teenage girls around twelve or thirteen or even ages younger. I though this was a fantastic book.
