Confessions from the Principal's Chair by Anna Myers
4.0
A very good book about girl bullying.
Bird's mother pulls her out of school and moves her to a very small town in Oklahama after her eighth grade group "The six-packs" tease another girl. When Bird shows up for her first day of school she is mistaken as the temporary Principal who no one if the building has meet yet. From the other side of the Principal's desk Bird sees the other side of girl bullying and starts to feel bad about what she did before. She has two days as the principal to try and turn around the bullying at her new school and be a different Bird than she was before.
It stretch the imagination a bit because really is anyone going to mistake an eighth grader for a twenty-something. But it is a nice look inside the "in-group". Shows how maybe all the mean girls maybe don't want to be but are afraid not to be.
