I'LL START WITH SIMETHING THAT MAY SURPRISE YOU. WHAT I REALLY WANTED
IN JUNIOR HIGH WAS TO BE A CHEERLEADER. IF I HAD MADE IT, ALL THIS WOULD
NEVER HAVE HAPPENED....
Maisie Potter isn't quite sure why she signed up for the boys' wrestling
team. She's never been all that interested in boys, so it can't have
anything to do with Eric Delong, in spite of the disturbing effect his
smile has on her. And she's certainly not prepared for the effect her
presence on the team has on the people around her.
Her brother's totally disgusted with her, her best friend drops her, her
classmates ridicule her, and opposing teams forfeit rather than wrestle
her. But Maisie's not a quitter, and she discovers that she really likes
wrestling -- and that while Eric might not be worth the flak she puts up
with, feeling good about herself is.
