Bobby vs Girls (Accidentally) by Lisa Yee


Bobby vs Girls (Accidentally) by Lisa Yee
Genre: Middle Reader Fiction
My Rating: 7/10

I just finished this book today, and it was very funny. Bobby Ellis-Chan is the son of a retired football player, The Freezer. His dad is well known in their town for scaring his opponents on the field, and likes to growl at random people in grocery stores as well. Bobby loves his father, but often finds him to be quite embarrassing. When Bobby starts 4th grade, he soon finds that there are many other things that can embarrass a normal 9 year old boy...
Things like: being caught wearing pink curlers (it was his younger sister's fault!), getting stuck to the world's smelliest tree on a field trip, and finding out that static cling and underwear can ruin a class election!

Besides having all of these things happen, Bobby is also trying to deal with the changes that his best friend experienced over the summer. Holly used to be fun ~ she liked to go exploring and rock hunting and do boy things. But just before school starts, Bobby finds out that Holly has become GIRLY! It's common knowledge at Bobby's school that boys and girls don't get along... but will that keep the two friends apart?
