It’s Not the End of the World

Description

Can Karen keep her parents from getting a divorce? This classic novel from Judy Blume has a fresh new look.Karen couldnt tell Mrs. Singer why she had to take her Viking diorama out of the sixth-grade showcase. She felt like yelling, To keep my parents from getting divorced! But she couldnt say it, and the whole class was looking at her anyway.Karens world was ending. Her father had moved out of the house weeks before; now he was going to Las Vegas to get divorced, and her mother was pleased! She had only a few days to get the two of them together in the same room. Maybe, if she could, they would just forget about the divorce. Then the Newman family could be its old self again maybe. But Karen knew something she didnt know last winter: that sometimes people who shouldnt be apart are impossible together.
