September 11th

CL did an excellent job dealing with the Sept. 11 tragedy. "Together At Ground Zero" [D/J '02] shows kids and teens really can make a difference!

Vanessa and Jackie were so brave to volunteer at Ground Zero. They took time out of their lives to help people they didn't even know. I really admire them for their courageous efforts.

It really touched me when I read about the Brown Street Academy's fifth-grade class raising $1,000 in pennies. It inspired me to start a penny drive at my school and donate all the money to the American Red Cross American Red Cross: see Red Cross. .

Thank you for putting "The First 24 Hours" in your D/J '02 issue. Although it's difficult to be reminded of the terrorist attacks, I now realize I'm not alone. I know our country is irreplaceable and precious, and that many other girls feel the same way.

Little Black Dress

I loved the GL beauty/fashion article [D/J '02] about getting four different party looks with one black dress. Sometimes, mags have outrageous clothes and makeup makeup

Rest and Relaxation

"I Quit" [D/J '02] is such a great article! I was involved in so many different activities after school that I never had time to relax or just watch an episode of Friends. I decided to quit the clubs and sports I don't really like anymore. Now, I have more time to hang out and chill. And the best part is that I don't feel the least bit guilty about it!

Truly Talented

The D/J '02 Short Stuff article about Brenna K. is awesome. I think it's really cool that you did an update on her. I know Brenna and her family because we both ski in the same area. Brenna's a great girl, and she is truly talented. I'm glad your readers got a chance to learn more about her.

A Real Rocker

Michelle Branch rocks! I bought her CD after reading about her in the D/J '02 Spotlight. I can't believe she's only 18. Michelle has such a mature sound that's totally unique, and she plays guitar! She's nothing like those pop princesses out there. Thanks for featuring a true musician!
