A seventh grader battles bullying and heartbreak, questioning her true identity.
Seventh grader Addie Carle faces relentless bullying and a broken heart, challenging her to stay true to herself. As labels and taunts fly, Addie wonders if standing up for her identity will only make her more of a target. With her friends Bobby, Joe, and Skeezie by her side, she navigates the turbulent waters of middle school, questioning if she can remain authentic amidst the chaos. Will Addie find the courage to embrace who she truly is, or will the pressure to conform overwhelm her?
Outspoken seventh grader Addie Carle confronts bullying and heartbreak in this third book of the funny, heartfelt, and beloved Misfits series by Bunnicula author James Howe.They say in the seventh grade you are who they say you are, but how can that be true? How can I be a Godzilla-girl lezzie loser know-it-all big mouth beanpole string bean freaky tall fall-down spaz attack brainiac maniac hopeless nerd bad word brown-nosing teacher’s pet… How can I be all that and still be true to the real me while everyone is saying: This is who you are. Addie has been called a lot of names. Until now, her tough exterior and her best friends–Bobby, Joe, and Skeezie–made the teasing easy enough to ignore. But dealing with a broken heart in more ways than one makes seventh grade harder than Addie expected, and she begins to wonder if standing up for who she is on the inside will only make her more of a target on the outside.
