Pauline follows the book's advice and writes a novel based on her life that is full of friendship foibles, boyfriend troubles, parental antics and general angst. And, of course, pop-cultural references that Pauline's readers will immediately recognize: Avril Lavigne, Friends and Canadian Idol Kalan, to name a few. Beneath Pauline's account of her adventures and exploits lie more serious issues, including her parents' divorce and her beloved teacher's loss of a best friend to AIDS. All are expressed in ways that are honest, believable and revealing of the realities of teenage life."Pauline Carelli-Bloom, budding novelist, is not only charming, she's also winning, captivating and irresistible!" (Susan Juby, author of Alice, I Think)Ages 10 and up
