Plot
Highlighting the importance of friendship, family, and social networks in girls' sense of themselves, this book suggests that literacy plays an important role in maintaining friendship groups and in the construction of self. This provocative new book questions many common assumptions about early adolescence, most importantly, the "good girl" role so often assigned to and reinforced in female students.
