A new book called “How Do You Spell G E E K?” by Julie Anne Peters has been published, and it makes a great read for kids who are about eight to 14 years old (but anyone who reads it will love it, really). The book is about a girl who is forced to choose between friendship and her dreams to win the National spelling day and night since it is the last year they can qualify for the competition.
Then, Ann is assigned to show a brand-new student around their school – the girl’s name is Lurlee.
Well, it turns out that the new girl, Lurlee, is an AMAZING speller. Like totally and completely awesome at it. Because of this, Ann is suddenly put in a really tough spot, and she finds that her close friendship with Kimberly and her chances of winning the National spelling ability, is also the daughter of two very pushy parents who put a ton of stress on her to be the best.
Ann, who so desperately wants to compete in the Bee, is dealing with another major event in her life: the sudden divorce of her parents.
And Lurleen, the new girl at school, is having a really tough time fitting in among her new classmates. She’s moved to town from South Dakota, where she was home-schooled by her parents and always wore braids and knee socks – so not the style of the kids in her new class.
