The premise of Margolis's effervescent story-a girl uses the techniques from a dog-training manual on boys-has been seen before...but rarely has it been so well grounded and developed.

Publishers Weekly, starred review

The best part of this book is that it may empower a few middle-school victims to take charge of their lives, perhaps with as much success as Annabelle.

Kirkus Reviews

This book was terrific!....[Annabelle is] a character who starts out unsure of herself but you really see her confidence grow in the book. This would be an enjoyable read for anyone, whether you are in junior high or just want to relive those memories!
