Because of Anya by Margaret Peterson Haddix (realistic fiction) 12.19.14
I would rate this book a 10. It showed an enourmous amount of courage, hope, and kindness throughout the main characters. Anya is of course one of the main characters, and there are two more: Keely and Stef. Keely and Stef are in the popular crowd at school, and one day Stef notices that Anya is wearing a wig. Stef wants one of her 'friends' to go and tug on Anya's hair to see if she was wearing a wig.(plain rude!) Of course, since Keely is the 'friend' that they like the least, Stef and her pals made Keely do it(gladly Keely didn't), but Keely finally stood up for herself!
Well, the school finds out about Anya wearing a wig, and she gets extremely embarrassed. Keely tried to figure out something to do for Anya, and suddenly it hit her. She could give Anya her hair! She ended up doing that, and Anya and Keely became friends. When Anya went back to school, she saw that Stef did the same thing. All of a sudden, she realized that Stef wasn't so bad after all.
My favorite character would have to be Keely. The reason being is that Keely started out to be a shy, nervous girl. In the end, she was bold and daring; the total opposite of the Keely from the begging. I deffinately think that Keely is the type of person I would want to be!
