Gidget by Frederick Kohner
I ran across the perfect beach read that many young adults and adults will enjoy; especially if you are a fan of the Sally Field sitcom Gidget.
Gidget takes us back to when we were fifteen or sixteen and longed to fill our summer days with trips to the beach. She learns to surf much to her father's dismay and begans a friendship with the beach bums in Malibu. It is here she finds her first summer love Moondoggie and learns all about how to deal with the feelings of first love. Along the way she becomes one of the few females to learn how to surf and "fit in," with the guys who know the waves best.
This is a great read for teens who appreciate the 1960s surf era or anyone who loved the Gidget series.
