| Publisher Description: Funny and human and clever and wise. I really, really like this sparkling, racing, hilarious little gem. -- Hilary McKay, author of Saffy's Angel and Binny In SecretSylvie Scruggs doesn't like Georgie Diaz. He always calls her Scruggs. He always beats her in baseball. He didn't invite her to his party. Plus, he's a boy.Now Georgie is trying to steal Sylvie's best friend, Miranda Tan. He's giving Miranda a super-special birthday present, so Sylvie will too -- only her present will be ten times better. With the help of her twin brothers, a ferret, a castle, and some glitter glue, Sylvie sets out to make Miranda remember who her REAL best friend is, and forget about Georgie forever.Two words: Sylvie Scruggs. Two more words: LOVE HER Eyre nails it with this new kid on the block. (And here's a challenge: I dare you not to laugh out loud). -- Barbara O'Connor, author of How To Steal A Dog and The Fantastic Secret of Owen Jester |
