Synopsis

Summer is over and that can only mean one thing for eight-year-old Mallory McDonald (like the restaurant, but no relation)—she has to go back to school. But not just any school, a new school with all new kids in it. To make matters worse, her mom is going, too! She’s the new music teacher, and Mallory can’t think of anything that could possibly be worse—until her first day. She has to sit with Pamela, who always says the right thing and steals her ideas. Joey is so busy with his old friends that he has no time for her, and to top it off, she’s picked to be an eggplant in the Fall Festival her mom is putting on. It’s not fair! What can Mallory do? Should she give Pamela, and her new school, another chance?

Mallory has settled into her new house (somewhat) and is so not ready for school. It's daunting to be the new kid and having to figure out the friendship groups. It's even harder when you're determined not to give anyone a chance. It's made even harder by having her mom be the new music teacher at h......more

I think mallory is selfish and she always wants everything kinda like..............me but the book was still good. I think that it was terrible what mallory did during the show that her mom set up and she should not be embaressed by her mom.......more
