Gender Blender

Category: Juvenile Fiction

Perfect for fans of classic teen comedies like She’s All That and Freaky Friday, this is the story of two tweens who can’t imagine problems bigger than their own until they wake up one morning…and realize they’ve switched bodies. All Emma wants is for Jeff Matthews to notice her, to avoid sexist boys, and to finally get her period. All Tom wants is to not look like a wuss at school, to figure out his new blended family, and to get a chance with Kelly A. Neither thinks about much else. That is until something freaky happens. Emma and Tom wake up one morning in each other’s bodies. Now all Emma can think about is how to dodge the mean girls who torment her and all Tom can think about is how to avoid being alone with Jeff Matthews. This hilarious and thought-provoking read will have tweens wondering what high school is really like for the classmates they consider their opposites--and have them second-guessing the pre-conceived notions they may have about each other.
