The Earth, My Butt and Other Big Round Things (15th Anniversary Edition)

In the 15th anniversary edition of Carolyn Mackler's Printz Honor book, readers are reintroduced to the witty and body-conscious Virginia Shreves, a fifteen-year-old struggling with her identity in a family where perfection seems to reign. As she navigates the challenges of adolescence—friendships, body image, and budding romance—Virginia relies on her "Fat Girl Code of Conduct" to cope, but soon faces unexpected changes that test her resilience. With humor and heart, this edition includes updates and new material from the author, making it as relevant today as when it first captivated audiences.
