In this sweet, funny, and poignant novel, twelve-year-old Neon Blue Greene is queen of the cafeteria, co-captain of the cheerleading squad, and has the most amazing dog any seventh grader could ask for. Her only complaint in life is that her parents named her after the color of a sports energy drink until the morning she overhears them whispering and learns that she has twenty-eight days left to live. 

Neon needs a miracle, but how can she get one in only twenty-eight days? Then it hits her. She’ll do a good deed every day. She starts doing good deeds for everyone in town, from motorcycle gang dropout Knuckles Malone to her autistic classmate Bobby, who becomes a hero and friend when she needs one most. But when her best friends ditch her, and her good deeds go sideways, Neon wonders if she’ll get the miracle she needs . . . before it’s too late.

Review for 28 Days of Neon

A middle-grade book that packs a punch. What would you do if you found out you had only 28 days to live? I love Neon’s reaction – to do good for others – even if she wants a miracle in return. The story features life lessons and entertainingly presents them and especially enjoyed the diary entries. I couldn’t help but love Neon and the other relatable characters. A great story that is both eye-opening and thought-provoking.
