My girl

Thirteen-year-old Vada Sultenfiss us being kicked out of her room because her stepmother, Shelly, is about to have a baby. Her friend Judy's in love with a jerk, and even though Vada's best friend Thomas J. died two years ago, she still misses him. Suddenly, Vada's beginning to wonder whether she'd rather write a really good poem--or get a really good kiss.
