Like most 8th grade girls, Breeze Brannigan loves to hang with friends, try new hairstyles and talk about boys. As the tallest student in her class, Breeze figures no boy will be interested in her, a skinny, red-headed giraffe with braces.

The doubts that swirl through Breeze's mind are so relatable. Kids will really understand where she's coming from. But where Breeze is heading is the most fun of all. This story is wonderfully written and both the characters and the story keep you turning page after page.
