What is Larger-Than-Life Lara about?

** *This isn't about me. This story, I mean. So already you got a reason to hang it up. At least that's what Mrs. Smith, our English teacher, says.* **But the story *is* about ten-year-old Laney Grafton and the new girl in her class--Lara Phelps, whom everyone bullies from the minute she shows up. Laney is just relieved to have someone else as a target of bullying. But instead of acting the way a bullied kid normally acts, this new girl returns kindness for a meanness that intensifies . . . until nobody remains unchanged, not even the reader.In a unique and multi-layered story, with equal parts humor and angst, Laney communicates the art of storytelling as it happens, with chapter headings, such as: *Character, Setting, Conflict, Rising Action, Climax.* And she weaves an unforgettable tale of a new girl who transforms an entire class and, in the process, reveals the best and worst in all of us.This is a powerful and emotional story, which *School Library Journal* called "Thoroughly enjoyable and unexpectedly wry, . . . as intelligent as it is succinct."words : 28630
