With a distinct lack of boobage and an arse so big that birds of prey could nest within its shadows, Jess Jordan is saddled with the Goddess Flora for a best friend, a Britney Spears look-alike so gorgeous that one grain of her divine dandruff could make the blind see again. Jess knows that her soul mate is Ben Jones, a divine mixture of Leonardo diCaprio, Prince William, and Brad Pitt who oozes mystery and charisma. But the campaign to get Ben to notice her brings on a cavalcade of mortification and disaster, including, but not limited to, a minestrone soup explosion that takes place in her bra and a schoolwide viewing of a videotape that features a topless Jess referring to her breasts as \"Bonnie\" and \"Clyde.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMeanwhile, Jess's death-obsessed Granny moves into her bedroom, along with her grandfather's remains; her hypochondriac dad, who sends her daily \"horrorscopes\" like \"You will fall asleep with your mouth open, and a family of earwigs will move in,\" acts strange about Jess staying with him this summer; and her longtime friend Fred, a television violence addict and closet thumbsucker, has decided that he can't stand being around her. Jess is determined to make things right . . . but with her offbeat sense of humor and her wildly active imagination, things get complicated along the way.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sue Limb\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Delacorte Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/10\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.80h x 5.26w x 0.54d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780385732154\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.1\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 8\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade Plus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e81218 \/ Girl, 15, Charming But Insane\/Charming But Insane\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/18\/2005 pg. 209\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSue Limb\u003c\/b\u003e's writing career started in London around 1980, with various assignments for magazines and newspapers, and her first radio work, \u003ci\u003eBig and Little\u003c\/i\u003e, which won a Sony Award for Best Children's Programme. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHer children's books include \u003ci\u003eBig and Little, China Lee, Me Jane, Big Trouble\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eMr Loopy and Mrs Snoopy\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003ci\u003eCome Back, Grandma\u003c\/i\u003e is published by Random House UK and was shortlisted for the Smarties Prize.
