Book Pick up the Week - Librarian's Pick



In Trouble by Ellen Levine - If you are looking to read an interesting and thought provoking historical fiction book, then I recommend In Trouble by Ellen Levine. This book takes place in the 1950s and is about two high school friends, Jamie and Elaine, who both become pregnant at about the same time. Each girl becomes pregnant under completely different circumstances and wants to deal with the pregnancy in different ways. Raising issues about birth control, abortion, and date rape, In Trouble provides insight into difficult subjects in a sensitive and powerful way.
