Welcome to Litsy!

Twelve-year-old Kat woos the boy next door on behalf of her best friend, and in the process realizes that true beauty�and true confidence�comes from the inside in this hilarious M!X novel from the author of Small Medium at Large. Kat is already so over seventh grade. It doesn�t help that her best friend and cousin, Olivia, grew a foot over the summer and won a spot on the school�s dance team, shooting her up on the popularity scale. In the jungle that is middle school, Olivia is a gazelle. Braces-wearing, manga-loving, uncoordinated Kat is a warthog. Plus, Tyler, Kat�s next-door neighbor and buddy since birth, morphed into a really cute boy over the summer. Suddenly the person Kat�s used to playing Xbox with is causing her stomach to do cartwheels. When Olivia confesses that she has a crush on Tyler and wants to ask him to the Fall Ball dance, Kat knows there�s going to be a problem: Tyler thinks Olivia is just another ditsy girl who only cares about lip gloss and boy bands. But since Kat�s one of Tyler�s oldest friends, Olivia�s sure she�ll know how to get his attention. Trying to be a good friend and squash her own feelings, Kat makes it her mission to get the two of them together. From writing �Tyler cheat sheets� listing his favorite things, to feeding Olivia lines through her headphones during Tyler-focused study sessions, Kat devises schemes by which Tyler will fall for Olivia. And to her delight�or maybe horror�her plan begins to work. Now that Olivia�s caught Tyler�s attention, Kat has to wonder if she�s fooled Tyler into falling for the wrong girl. But what boy would ever choose a warthog over a gazelle?
