About the Book
Zoey Zinevich has 198 days to go until the start of sixth grade. But there's just one problem: She must transform herself from "geek" to "chic" to land a spot at the right lunch table. A fairy godmother might be the answer to Zoey's problem--or maybe not. This funny tween novel from Margie Palatini--fully illustrated by the author--captures a fresh look at the everyday challenges of being almost eleven.
Praise for Geek Chic:
"Tweens will celebrate the arrival of an intrepid heroine with plenty of sparkle and spunk to spare. Snappy prose coupled with graphic-novel styling holds appeal for savvy modern readers up-to-date with rapid-fire texting and instant messaging." --Kirkus Reviews
"The story will please girls who cultivate offbeat interests with as much enthusiasm and zaniness as Zoey." --School Library Journal
"[Zoey's] brisk, hilarious commentary and confessions will draw tweens into the contemporary Cinderella story." --ALA Booklist
