Edi’s got great friends and good grades, but her family just don’t get her. Luckily, she’s got something to take her mind off things at home – her crush, Archie de Souza.

When Edi and Archie hook up, Edi can hardly believe her luck. Soccer-mad Archie is gorgeous and funny, and his loving family welcome her with open arms. Finally, she’s surrounded by people who love her just the way she is. But is Archie more interested in sport than he is in Edi?

 Girl vs. the World is a fun, true-to-life series about navigating high school, first crushes, and the ups and downs of adolescence.

Hazel’s friends are super cool, but she feels like a fraud. She doesn’t have her period yet and she’s never been kissed, and she’s not confident or pretty like her friends are, either! So what should she do about her crush on Leo, who’s sweet and funny but in the year above? Maybe it’s time to take matters into her own hands …

Refreshingly honest and deliciously heartwarming,  this series is perfect for readers aged 10 to 13.

Olympia has a few good things in her life. These include: her
dog, Cricket; her painting and drawing; and the cute guy in
the art-supplies store who keeps her daydreaming. But there
are a lot of bad things too: her parents seem more concerned
with their on-again-off-again relationship than they are with
her, and even her best friend Edi seems to be zoning out on her.
What does Olympia have to do to get their attention?
