Items related to Violet Raines Almost Got Struck by Lightning
Violet Raines is happy with things just the way they are in her sleepy Florida town, but when Melissa moves to town from big-city Detroit, all of a sudden things seem like they're changing whether Violet likes it or not. It'll take a few run-ins with lightning and a whole lot of courage for her to realize that growing up doesn't have to mean changing who you are.

Review:
Danette Haworth creates characters so real they stand out on the page... This is a lovely debut. (Audrey Couloumbis, Newbery Honor-winning author of Getting Near to Baby)
Danette Haworth has written a wonderful story that is as warm and bright as the Florida sun, and 11-year-old Violet Raines-loyal, hilarious, and true-is the best friend any girl could have. (Lauren Tarshis, author Emma-Jean Lazarus Fell Out of a Tree)
Violet's voice grabbed me from the very first page. . . The writing is gentle and true and reminiscent of Kimberly Willis Holt & Kate DiCamillo. (Emily D. Pardo, Books & Books, Coral Gables, FL)
A coming-of-age tale that is as full of sass as its uniquely named protagonist. (Kirkus Reviews)
Haworth takes on coming-of-age dilemmas with spunk, innocence, and a cast of believable, well-developed characters (School Library Journal)
