A propos du livre

Revue de presse

Confidently addressing a number of common tween troubles that include bullying, parental divorce, and peer pressure, Staniszewski (the My Very UnFairy Tale Life series) introduces a determined eighth-grader desperate to get her separated parents back together in this humorous problem novel. It isn t the love of bleach and toilet brushes that drives Rachel Lee to help her mother with her weekend cleaning business. Rachel needs money fast to replace the $300 she borrowed from her college-fund account in order to visit her father in Florida and talk some sense into him, hoping to persuade him to come home. One unexpected bonus of her new job is gaining access to the homes of some of her classmates. While cleaning up their messes, Rachel discovers a few dirty little secrets ammunition that could bring her extra cash, win her the notice of the boy of her dreams, and take down her A-lister nemesis. Predictably, Rachel s schemes cause more pain than gain, but readers will likely forgive her errors in judgment as she sincerely attempts to make amends. Ages 10 14 --Publishers Weekly

Présentation de l'éditeur

Now instead of spending her weekends trying out new baking recipes, Rachel has to clean the houses of some of the most popular kids in her grade. Yeah, that's bound to do wonders for her already loser-ish reputation. But being the new maid to the in-crowd puts her in just the right place to stumble on all kinds of secrets, which she records in her newly christened Dirt Diary. She never means to give up her secrets, but when the hottest guy in school pays her to spy on his girlfriend, she convinces herself it's for a good cause. She needs a plane ticket to visit her dad and make him come back home.
