Review
From the front cover to the back this is a fun romp through the life of middle school. When a nerd starts to build a positive relationship with the school queen bee all sorts of hilarious adventures begin. In both the written text and appropriately geeky illustrious the characters come to life on the pages. Simple line drawings add interest to the pages and help to define the storyline. Kowitt offers a very funny story that takes all sorts of turns and leads to typical middle school issues. These girls are not to be meddled with, they know what needs to be done.
Order this book for middle school media centers and consider for public libraries. Perhaps there are some specific girls who would love to have this title recommended. Even female principals will get a laugh out of The Principal’s Underwear is Missing.
Overall Book Score: good
