Addie on the Inside (The Misfits)
- Used Book in Good Condition
In this â‚¬Å“artfully craftedâ‚¬Â (Publishers Weekly) companion to the bestselling The Misfits and Totally Joe, Addie Carle confronts labels, loss, and what it means to grow up.

The Gang of Five is back in this third story from Paintbrush Falls. Addie Carle, the only girl in the group of friends is outspoken, opinionated, and sometimesâ‚¬Â¦just a bit obnoxious.

But as seventh grade progresses, Addieâ‚¬s not so sure anymore about who she is. It seems her tough exterior is just a little too tough and that doesnâ‚¬t help her deal with the turmoil she feels on the inside as she faces the pains of growing up.

Told in elegant, accessible verse, ADDIE ON THE INSIDE gives readers a look at a strong, smart, and sensitive girl struggling with the box society wants to put her in. Addie confronts experiences many readers will relate to: the loss of a beloved pet, first heartbreak, teasingâ‚¬Â¦but also, friendship, love, and a growing confidence in oneâ‚¬s self.

You Are Who They Say You Are

They say in the seventh grade
you are who they say you are,
but how can that be true?

How can I be a /Godzilla-girl /lezzie loser /know-it-all/
big-mouth /beanpole /string bean/ freaky tall/
fall-down /spaz attack /brainiac /maniac/
hopeless nerd /*bad word*/brown-nosing /teacherâ‚¬s pet/
showing off /just to get
attention â‚¬â€œ
oh,
and did I mention:
flat-chestedâ‚¬Â¦

How can I be all that?
Itâ‚¬s too many things to be.
How can I be all that and
still be true to the real me
while everyone is saying:

This
is
who
you
are.
