Fifteen-year-old Virginia Shreves has a larger-than-average body and a plus-size inferiority complex. She lives on the Web, snarfs junk food, and follows the "Fat Girl Code of Conduct." Her stuttering best friend has just moved to Walla Walla (of all places). Her new companion, Froggy Welsh the Fourth (real name), has just succeeded in getting his hand up her shirt, and she lives in fear that he’ll look underneath. Then there are the other Shreves: Mom, the successful psychologist and exercise fiend; Dad, a top executive who ogles thin women on TV; and older siblings Anaïs and rugby god Byron, both of them slim and brilliant. Delete Virginia, and the Shreves would be a picture-perfect family. Or so she’s convinced. And then a shocking phone call changes everything.

With irreverent humor, insight, and surprising gravity, Carolyn Mackler creates an endearingly blunt heroine whose story will speak to every teen who struggles with family expectations - and serve as a welcome reminder that the most impressive achievement is to be true to yourself.]]> 4 0 false Mon Aug 31 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Aug 31 18:12:58 -0700 2009 Mon Aug 31 18:13:23 -0700 2009 more...]]> 69069226 1828000 253106 0763620912 9780763620912 307 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173159365m/253106.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/253106.The_Earth_My_Butt_and_Other_Big_Round_Things 3.80 1979 3 0 false Wed Aug 26 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Aug 27 06:09:19 -0700 2009 Thu Aug 27 06:42:51 -0700 2009 more...]]> 64790367 2556725 253106 0763620912 9780763620912 307 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173159365m/253106.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/253106.The_Earth_My_Butt_and_Other_Big_Round_Things 3.80 1979 4 0 false Fri Jul 24 09:43:05 -0700 2009 Fri Jul 24 09:43:51 -0700 2009 more...]]> 54293438 1691874 2481289 0606343938 9780606343930 2 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2481289.The_Earth_My_Butt_And_Other_Big_Round_Things 3.85 33 3 0 false Tue Apr 28 17:07:34 -0700 2009 Tue Apr 28 18:00:22 -0700 2009 Earth, My Butt, And Other Big Round Things (Turtleback)
