Bookroo's summary

Olivia is fed up with the relentless bullying from the popular crowd at school. Inspired by her experience training dogs with her grandmother, she hatches a daring plan to tame her tormentors using canine techniques. As Olivia and her friends embark on this unconventional mission, they wonder if they can transform from underdogs to leaders. Will their bold experiment succeed, or will it backfire spectacularly? Dive into this unique tale of friendship, courage, and unexpected alliances.

From the publisher

Olivia has just about had it with the popular kids at school. She and her friends have done nothing to deserve evil pranks and awful name-calling, but that doesn’t stop queen bee Brynne from humiliating them on a daily basis. If only Olivia’s classmates were more like the adorable dogs she helps her grandmother train-poorly behaved, but improvable. Wait . . . what if her tormentors’ behavior actually could be modified using the same type of training that works on dogs? Olivia and her friends are desperate enough to give it a try. But is it really possible that the underdogs of Hubert C. Frost Middle School could make it to head of the pack?
