I am reviewing a copy of The Humiliations Of Pipi McGee through Perseus Books/Running Press and Netgalley:
If you you a middle grade girl, then I would recommend The Humiliations Of Pipi McGee. The book tells the story of Pipi McGee with humor and heart.
For the first eight years of Pipi’s educational life she has experienced a curriculum in humiliation but now she is looking for redemption and maybe even a dose of revenge.
In kindergarten it was her self portrait as bacon with breasts, in fourth grade she peed her pants in the library due to a zipper that was stuck, and she never talks about seventh grade.
Hearing the guidance counselor talk about how high school will be a clean slate for everyone, Pipi McGee fear her humiliations will follow her to the halls of Northbrook High School, she decides to spend her last year in middle school righting the wrongs she had experienced in the earlier years of her education and save others from being picked on the way she was. Pipi McGee is looking for redemption but age will take revenge too.
I give The Humiliations Of Pipi McGee five out of five stars!
Happy Reading!
