A review by gadrake
The Earth, My Butt, and Other Big Round Things by Carolyn Mackler

5.0

If you often feel outside the "in" group, this book is for you. A girl wrestles with her weight and more importantly, her body image. Some of the pressure is self-imposed and some comes from her parents. Soon she realizes even so-called perfect people are flawed and can even topple off their pedestals. This story excels at showing us how to become healthy by standing up for ourselves and hiding no more.
