This is a college or sports romance. Main character named Brooklyn? Transfers to New college with bff. Meets love interest after football game. Instantly falls in love because family has a gift to know their soulmate when they find them. Not caveman series. I read it in 2014 on Kindle. She’s poor and he spoils her. I remember he got hers uggs in the book.
Seeking a book published probably in ‘40’s about girls at an international boarding school. Two sisters have problems adjusting, one wants to be like French girl Mimi who has black hair and wears red. Both girls eventually adjust with youngest who is a tomboy having a boyfriend who gives her Marron glaces. There is a plot involving skiing. This book belonged to my aunt and I probably read it in the mid-70’s and it was old even then. I think there was a character named Berthe or Bertha.
The main character is extremely smart, but his parents make him hide it. He gets recruited to a top secret high school. He also has an extremely high oxygen intake. He meets a few friends who all have extreme talents, the only one I remember is really good vision. His parents are taken over by bad guys and he tries to fight them.
Looking for an early 1990s kid’s book about a boy getting ready to start school and not wanting to go. He gets new shoes and says they are too tight. He gets a haircut and says it makes his ears stick out. I’m fairly certain he had orange/red hair.
My query is on a book I read in the mid 1960’s, however I don’t know when it was published. It was a child’s book about a young student (I believe a girl) whose parents worked in a restaurant. Because of that, she “had” to bring lovely, delicious restaurant leftovers for her school lunches. I vividly remember the descriptions of her covering her desk with a checked cloth, and taking out all this elegant, gourmet food. The twist was that she was ashamed of her lunches, for being different. I hope you can help!
