About the Book

Ten-year-old Lula Bell Bonner of White House, Tennessee, tries to fade into the background to avoid a bully, but after her beloved grandmother's death Lula Bell understands about letting her light shine in the darkness.

About the Author :
C. C. Payne was born and raised in Kentucky, by a family chock-full of superb storytellers: readers, writers, teachers, librarians, and lawyers--yes, Payne insists that any lawyer worth his salt knows how to tell a good, persuasive story. Growing up, she says, all kinds of stories were used, to quiet, to entertain, and to teach life lessons, but all stories worked to instill in Payne a love of the story--any story. Naturally, at the age of seven, she became a voracious reader. "After that," Payne says, "the house could've fallen down around my ears, and I would've just thought, Does this mean I have to put my book down?" Payne's first novel, Something to Sing About, received a boxed, starred review from Booklist, and was nominated for a 2010-2011 Children's Crown Award and a 2011 Kentucky Bluegrass Award. Meanwhile, as Payne continues to write, she says she's beginning to notice that all her books are like her: hopeful, humorous, and distinctly Southern. She lives in Kentucky. To learn more about C.

Review :
"...Lula is an amazingly real character that young readers will instantly identify with. Who, after all, hasn't had a bad hair day, feared performing, or been teased mercilessly by classmates? Readers will laugh, cringe and cry in turn as Lula navigates life with and without her beloved grandmother. An excellent book with a southern flair...Tweens will find much to enjoy in Lula's trials, tribulations and eventual successes." --Children's Literature "Lula Bell's voice is fresh and funny, full of quips and asides that add sparks of energy to her observations about the frustrations of busy parents, embarrassing elders, and social hierarchies. Her winning, upbeat narration secures empathy from the start, and when her grandmother dies readers will be invested in Lula Bell's grief and recovery, which moves at a realistically patient pace. Lula Bell is flawed enough for most readers to really relate to, so they will forgive her outbursts of anger and aggression as she comes to realize what it means to have and to be a real friend." --Karen Coats, Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
