Flip-Flop Girl Review: Great Pre-teen book - I bought this book for my 10 1/2 year old. She loved it, then lost it mid way thru the book, she can't wait until it is avail in the school library which she was told was next school year. I did not read it personally, can only relate that a 10 year old girl loved it! Review: The Flip-Flop Girl - I really enjoyed the way that I was drawn into Vinnie's life in the story of the Flip- Flop Girl. Since the story was written in first person, it really helped me to understand how Vinnie was feeling about the obstacles she was facing in her life. I could feel her frustration as I turned the pages and all I wanted to do was give her a hug and tell her that she was important and that everything would be okay. It irritated me to think that the adults around her were ignoring her in a time when she needed them the most. I have never had to personally face moving away from home or losing a parent, but I could tell how painful it must be to go through these things after reading the way the author described them in this story. Losing her father was hard enough, but then her mother moved them to live in a new town and start a new life with their grandmother. I honestly do not understand how this poor girl dealt with these kinds of changes for as long as she did. I personally could not have held up the way she did. This book would be great to put into my own classroom. It isn't a "sugar coated" book and I like that about it. It shows students that things will not always be happy and cheery all of the time. It also shows them that kids their age do face obstacles and successfully overcome them. This book might also touch a child that has personally gone through a tough time in their own life experiences and they can relate to what Vinnie went through. This might help them to get through the issues in their life a little easier. Katherine Patterson did a great job once again! I loved Bridge to Terabithia and I loved Flip-Flop Girl. The way she brings your emotions into her stories really makes them more meaningful and they stay in that special place in your heart. She would have had my vote for another Newbery Medal winner with Flip-Flop Girl. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,731,607 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,464 in Children's Books on Death & Dying #11,839 in Children's Books on Emotions & Feelings (Books) #16,677 in Children's Friendship Books | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (20) | | Dimensions | 7.7 x 5.24 x 0.36 inches | | Edition | Reprint | | Grade level | 3 - 7 | | ISBN-10 | 0140376798 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0140376791 | | Item Weight | 3.99 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 128 pages | | Publication date | February 1, 1996 | | Publisher | Puffin Books | | Reading age | 8 - 12 years | ## Images ![Flip-Flop Girl - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71fb-e4XvuL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Pre-teen book *by F***L on July 24, 2012* I bought this book for my 10 1/2 year old.

You are taken right into the life of Vinnie, a young girl who is facing a lot of tough challenges. The author makes this wonderful contemporary fiction book very realistic! The problems of death, moving and changing schools, little brothers and making new friends all plays an important role in making this book what it is. The setting is one that a young reader could very easily imagine and visualize. Paterson also does an excellent job of dealing with the feelings of loss and confusion that surround death in the eyes of a young child. I think every young reader shoud read this book. It has so many different aspects within, it's bound to touch the heart of every reader. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/11927330-flip-flop-girl](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/11927330-flip-flop-girl) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-05-05*
