(  ) jfoster_sf | Jun 3, 2008 | I thought this book had some good parts but it was very confusing for me so I wasnt so sure about it. (  ) jordyny7 | Feb 11, 2008 | Wow! Another great one of Phyllis's awesome books! Alice has a way of being funny without really knowing it, which makes it all the more enjoyable for the reader.

| Book description |
|
Instead, she finds herself in situations that are more embarrassing then they are thrilling. She likes dressing up as a showgirl for Halloween, but hasn't counted on what happens in the broom closet at school. And she's delighted to be a bridesmaid, but feels awkward at the bridal shower. Even Patrick begins to seem childish to her.
Elizabeth and Pamela, however, her two best friends, feel that life is changing too much for them. Elizabeth finds that a new a boy at school is attracted to her, while Pamela faces a serious problem at home. Lester, too, Alice's brother, can't quite believe he's losing his old girlfriend, Crystal. When Alice dials Miss Summers, however, the woman her father loves, there is always the hope that this time she will get the mother she has always wanted.

It’s not just her appearance that she wants to change, though. Patrick, her on-and-off boyfriend of over a year, seems to be extremely childish to her at times. Meanwhile, the new boy at school, Justin, is attracted to the pure and naïve Elizabeth; Alice’s older brother Lester continues to have girl problems; and her dad STILL hasn’t asked Miss Summers to marry him! How will Alice get through eighth grade if she has to do it all by herself? (
