| Twelve-year-old Cassie has a lot to cope with when her father moves "out of the picture." Her mom s constantly working overtime, her teenage sister s going AWOL, and her little brother seriously needs attention. It s up to Cassie to prevent total chaos at home -- or so she thinks. She can t control everything, though. At school Cassie s two "best" friends are turning nasty, and a cute boy is sending mixed signals. And then there s Mr. Mullaney -- the weirdest, hardest English teacher in the seventh grade -- who hates everything she does. Since Mr. Mullaney isn t even reading her brilliant work, Cassie starts submitting journal entries like "A Virtual Tour of My Insanely Messy Desk." But her sassy humor isn t winning her any friends or helping her ailing grades. What s a girl to do when life gets totally insane? Barbara Dee has created a witty, poignant portrait of an intense, honest, feisty girl who is ferociously funny and only too human. |
