Laura finds out that, Ricky, the boy who created her horrible nickname, "Lard Butt," has moved back into town-and immediately schemes to keep him quiet. After all, she can't let her new swim teammates, especially drool-worthy Noah, hear the horrible name! No way! She's determined to put a million years between grade school and junior high-even in the face of a father who drives an éclair, a would-be-movie-star mother who suddenly moves back home, and a past that comes back to haunt her with the dreaded nickname.Although Laura's embarrassed about how she looks in a swimsuit, she tries to stay true to her vow to take risks. She even lets Maria talk her into going to the school dance, where she braves negotiating a truce for a quarreling couple. New friendships form, Laura's mother starts getting too domesticated for Laura's comfort, and hints of romance start to develop-or do they?Review: This book should be read by ALL girls no matter what age they are, even if it means reading the book to each other so girls can understand each other's feelings...This book is so inspiring because as a girl, it is hard not to worry about my size and weight. This book really changed my perception of my body! ... Angel, 5 Girls Book Reviews
