Retelling

Author's Note: As an assignment we had to write a retelling piece for the Reading Lab. This piece is retelling "What Happened to Goodbye" by Sarah Dessen.


Once her parents divorce, McLean becomes engaged with her ever changing personalities-- from cheerleader to geek, from New York to Lakeview, McLean is convinced that by inventing identities from place to place, it won't hurt to say goodbye. This 17-year-old is taken on a journey of reality, acceptance, and trust. Will this young girl ever find peace in one place?
