After a long, trying year at boarding school, young Julie can’t wait to get away and visit her mom, whom she misses dearly; unfortunately, her mom has recently been named as Earth’s Ambassador to the planet of Norandia, and she informs Julie that it isn’t the best time for a visit. Ignoring her mom’s warnings to stay away, Julie embarks on a journey to Norandia anyway – but she soon realizes that her impetuousness may have gotten her in way over her head...

Brief yet compelling, Don’t Come Here, Julie! is an enjoyable read. Skillfully combining various elements of fantasy and science fiction, author P. Joy Webster has penned an intriguing tale of action and adventure sure to hold the interest of readers young and old alike. In Julie, Webster has crafted a true-life protagonist to which the young adult crowd will surely relate – particularly as a presumptuous, self-assured know-it-all – and the general storyline of her tale expounds on such invaluable life lessons as obedience, respect, and learning to embrace rules that, while far from pleasant, are nonetheless designed to protect us – particularly from ourselves.

Deftly edifying, Don’t Come Here, Julie! is a poignant cautionary tale with strong adolescent appeal. An entertaining read.
