Description
Scoliosis twists Deenieโs plans for her social life in this classic Judy Blume novel with a fresh new look.Deenieโs mother wants her to be a model, with her face on magazine coversโmaybe even in the moviesโbut Deenie wants to spend Saturdays with her friends Janet and Midge, tracking Harvey Grabowsky, the captain of the football team, around Woolworthโs. She wants to be a cheerleader, too, and go to the seventh-grade mixer to hear Buddy Brader play his drums.
Instead, Deenie is diagnosed with scoliosis. And that means body stockings to squeeze into, a roomful of strangers to face, and a terrifying brace that sheโll need to wear for years that goes from her neck to her hips. Suddenly Deenie has to cope with a kind of specialness thatโs frighteningโand might be hers forever. ISBN:9781481410373
