あらすじ・解説
A touchingly honest, candidly hysterical memoir from breakout teen author Maya Van Wagenen.
Stuck at the bottom of the social ladder at "pretty much the lowest level of people at school who aren't paid to be here," Maya Van Wagenen decided to begin a unique social experiment: spend the school year following a 1950s popularity guide, written by former teen model Betty Cornell. Can curlers, girdles, Vaseline, and a strand of pearls help Maya on her quest to be popular?
The real-life results are painful, funny, and include a wonderful and unexpected surprise - meeting and befriending Betty Cornell herself. Told with humor and grace, Maya's journey offers listeners of all ages a thoroughly contemporary example of kindness and self-confidence.
**Includes a PDF of Maya's digital photo album
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
批評家のレビュー
“I was inspired by her journey and made a point of saving a copy of Popular for my sister, who starts middle school this fall. Maybe if I had read it when I was her age, it could have saved me from a world of hurt, or at least put that world in perspective.” (Maude Apatow for the New York Times Book Review)
“Popular taps into a feeling shared by Bradbury and Bieber enthusiasts alike - the need to fit in during middle school.” (USA Today)
“An interesting and earnest memoir.” (Kirkus Reviews)
