| Publisher Description: Sixth-grader Kate Harding has bigger problems than trying to get her parents to stop calling her "Katie." She has a major crush on her older brother's best friend, Zachary Donaldson, and in a moment of insanity she dares to write his name on the bathroom wall in eight-inch high pencil letters. It doesn't take Principal Butter long to match the handwriting to the doodling on her book covers. Kate is sent to detention, where she meets three new friends, and they all decide to become the True Girl Club. Her case of boy craziness is cured with some good advice from her new friends. |
