Because words can hurt you too.
Noah's the quiet type, which makes him a great friend for Veronica. She
chats. He listens. She gabs. He nods. Perfect!
So when Veronica spots Noah getting teased, she decides that if he won't
speak up for himself, she will! What she doesn't expect is that the
teasing will turn on her -- and her sense of style. Veronica's so
embarrassed that she agrees to a mega Makeover from Cora, the Queen of
Cute. When this only makes the name-calling worse, Veronica and Noah
know just who to call for back-up: the one-and-only problem-solving
team, the Fix-It Friends!
This is the second adventure in The Fix-It Friends chapter book series.
