Official synopsis Publisher
Bessica Lefter is back in this hilarious, all-too-relatable middle school novel that “will have readers laughing aloud” (Booklist).
Now that Bessica’s the half mascot at her middle school and made some new friends, she finally feels like she’s fitting in. But Alice, the other half mascot, hates her. And after some mean texts, Bessica’s friendship with Sylvie might be over. Bessica doesn’t want drama. She’s got her first big game to worry about. Not even taking care of gorgeous Noll Beck’s lizard or deciding whether to crash Sylvie’s party can distract her. Bessica will be facing off as mascot against T.J. the Tiger, who has a reputation for embarrassing the competition. Letting him make fun of her would be like letting him humiliate her whole school.
Bessica’s worked hard to have some social status. And she’ll work even harder to keep it. . . .
