Danu used to have tons of friends and did well in school. But that was before her dad went away for work and left her with her cold, workaholic aunt. As a Sagittarius, Danu longs for space and company. When she can't get either, Danu rebels at school, changing from a straight-A student into every teacher's worst nightmare. When a Web site search reveals that she is a Zodiac Girl, Danu is skeptical at first, but soon her zodiac guardians are pointing her back in the right direction. Danu learns that she must take responsibility for her own happiness and that when life hands you a difficult card, it's how you play that counts.

Im not quite sure why I did not like this book. Probably because it is for someone a little bit younger then I am. Beside that I thought it was a great childrens book. When a website claims Danu as a zodiac girl, Danu thinks it is a joke. She soon finds out that it is indeed real and that her guardians are guideing her back into the right direction.

In this Zodiac Girls book, Danu has to move in with her aunt after her dad has to go away for work. She misses her friends & animals & even her old school. She doesn't fit in at her new school and the only friend she has is the Polish girl her aunt hired to deliver meals to her. She's ultra depressed at her aunt's because it's so boring with no personality in the decor. She even tries to get kicked out of school so her dad will have to come back and get her.
Then she becomes a Zodiac Girl and suddenly things open up to her. The local diner manager becomes her guide and she wins a apartment makeover. Finally she lives in a place she can call home. She begins slowly making friends and she and her aunt begin to have a real relationship.
This book also has a lot of umbelievable stuff. I'm still wodnering if the people in the book, like the guidance counselor, are actual planets or what, but the character Danu is very interesting.
These books are a little younger than Cathy hopkins "Mates, DAtes" series, but worth looking into if you;re a fan of hers.
