(4) 4-6 Fifth-grader Lula Bell wants desperately to fit in, but her best friend has become a bully intent on exposing Lula's freakdom. When her grandmother dies unexpectedly, Lula tries to take her advice to ignore mean girls and simply "let her light shine." Lula's troubles are resolved too tidily, but her longing for acceptance and the book's lighthearted humor may win over younger readers.
