Reinvention of Bessica Lefter

After an unfortunate incident at the hair salon, Bessica is not allowed to see her best friend, Sylvie. That means she''s going to start middle school a-l-o-n-e. Bessica feels like such a loser. She wants friends. She''s just not sure how to make them.
It doesn''t help that her beloved grandma is off on some crazy road trip and has zero time to listen to Bessica. Or that Bessica has a ton of homework. Or that gorgeous Noll Beck thinks she''s just a kid. Or that there are some serious psycho-bullies in her classes. Bessica doesn''t care about being popular. She just wants to survive—and look cute. Is that too much to ask when you''re eleven?
