Free Bread Girl

Mattie’s smart and she’s in line for a college scholarship, but she’s not exactly the most popular person in school. When the hot and hunky guys at the women’s convention bread booth give out free samples to all the cutest, trendiest girls in the room, they overlook her. It’s just proof that she’s not worth their attention—she’s not a free bread girl. What she really wants is to date Travis Banks, her high school’s soccer king. But he just can’t see past her clumsiness and frizzy hair to the real Mattie underneath, and sometimes, she can’t either. What’s it going to take for Mattie to find the free bread girl within? “Shari Bird has captured the essence of what it’s like to be an insecure teenage girl with stories of hilarity, heartache, passion, and understanding that made me remember what it felt like to be that awkward adolescent. Free Bread Girl is one book worth handing on and on and on. Excellent!” Karen E. Hoover, author of the Wolfchild Saga
