It’s a new school year for Mallory and everything’s perfect! She has a new computer, a pair of just-right back-to-school shoes, and her best friend, Mary Ann, is in her class. But somehow things go from perfectly good to perfectly bad. Mallory’s first crush is the same boy Mary Ann likes—and Mary Ann gets all his attention. And even though she has the right shoes, Mallory somehow gets off on the wrong foot with her teacher, Mr. Knight. Can Mallory find a way to turn things around and put her best foot forward?

Reviews

Booklist

“Mallory’s first-person narrative, interspersed with emails and a transcript of her dreaded conference with Mr. Knight, convincingly portrays both her high hopes and her low spirits as she tries to find her way.”

Kirkus Reviews

“Mallory’s chatty, first-person narrative will keep readers’ interest as she tries to solve her problems, with mixed results. With the addition of e-mail messages and a touch of romance, this easy-to-read chapter book has a slightly older theme than its predecessors.”
