The Junction of Sunshine and Lucky

I know I shouldn't say this, but I almost did not read this because of the cover.  I am glad I did.  It was a wonderfully unique story (which of late is really saying something) about the definition of beauty.  A young girl living in a poor community is asked to spruce up her home.  She does by making whimsical recycled sculptures for her lawn, but when they are called junk, she can not understand it.  Her strength and determination in opening the eyes of those that would define beauty in their own terms changes her town and lets her discover her "shine".  I loved it all...the charming characters, the beautiful language... all of it. (FIC SCH)
