Summary
A thirteen-year-old girl seemingly destined for a modeling career finds she has a deformation of the spine called scoliosis.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Scoliosis twists Deenieâs plans for seventh grade in this classic Judy Blume novel with a fresh new look.
Deenieâs mother wants her to be a model, with her face on magazine coversâmaybe even in the moviesâbut Deenie wants to spend Saturdays with her friends Janet and Midge, tracking Harvey Grabowsky, the captain of the football team, around Woolworthâs. She wants to be a cheerleader, too, and go to the seventh-grade mixer to hear Buddy Brader play his drums.
Instead, Deenie is diagnosed with scoliosis. And that means body stockings to squeeze into, a roomful of strangers to face, and a terrifying brace that sheâll need to wear for years that goes from her neck to her hips. Suddenly Deenie has to cope with a kind of specialness thatâs frighteningâand might be hers forever.
