Nearby, Mr. Stewart, the principal, gripped my transfer papers in his bony hand.

Hope he doesn't ring my old school.

Just then, a smiling teacher with dimples approached the doorway, her ponytail bouncing with every step. Despite her smile, she looked as nervous as a frightened joey. Her name tag read Miss Bliss.

Kimberly: It's nice to have a great book that you can simply melt into. There's a touch of drama but not so much that it's jarring. There's a touch of spice but not so much that you'd be ashamed at recommending it to your mother. The characters have you both chuckling and rolling your eyes at the same time. ...
